Subject: Re: An amazing looking Sun 3/280
I built *dozens* of such racks from early 1993 to late 1995, filled
with Sun 3/50 and 3/60 boards that were netbooted. This was a
progenitor of what we now call "blade systems". Of course Sun swore it
wouldn't work (nobody knows less about Sun computers than Sun...never
seen anything like it) and of course someone else took the credit, but
it's documented at least.

I stripped dozens of processor boards from 3/60 systems that were then
sold to your employer.
