Unsurprising. I'm on the Suns-at-Home list, and anything that has a
32-bit SPARC processor is very hard to find homes for.
Really? I'd happily
give 32-bit SPARC gear a home.
In general, I will too
Me too; a SPARC 2 was the first "real" computer I used when I went to uni
in 1993 - prior to that it had all been PCs / Mac / 8-bitters (oh, and an
Amiga).
I doubt they're particularly cheap to ship, though, and there's ~ 0% chance
of any Sun hardware showing up within easy pickup distance.
