Ran across a nice racked Sun 2 system with open-reel 9-track in a
storage closet at a local U just a couple years ago (pretty sure it
was a 2). I don't know now what has happened to it.
In all my years of messing with Sun gear I have
never seen such a
clean looking and neat 3/280. Even back in the early 90's. It
looks like it was just unboxed. I wouldn't pay $2k for it but, it
is beautiful if your into Sun 3 boxes. It's almost Sun 3 porn.

I had two 4/280's like that, wish I could have held on to them.
Also was at an auction with 8 systems in a complex from a database
development company. Gorgeous hardware for them, crap execution on
the s/w.
