- FOR SALE: Sun Microsystems 3/50 Workstation
-
- This is a true-blue (purple really) stock Sun 3/50, with the following:
-
- - 68020 microprocessor
- - 68881 co-processor (these are nice to have!)
- - 4 Megs RAM (stock)
- - B&W monochrome frame buffer
- - All the standard Sun 3 stuff (2 serial ports, thin-net ethernet
- AND aui port, DB-50 SCSI bus)
- - Sun 3 keyboard & Mouse Systems optical mouse (stock, with pad)
-
- What it doesn't have:
-
- - Any disks, tape, or other accessories (you can get a plethora of
- these from the net, and besides, they never come with the system
- anyway!)
- - A monochrome monitor (these can be obtained from time-to-time from
- the net also as organizations upgrade -- the Sun exchange program
- only requires the CPU boards, and you can probably pick one up
- for $cheap$ from one of these)
-
- I've been using this machine for over a year now as a unix-box with a trusty
- TVI-925 terminal as a console, and it's worked great! If you're looking for
- a low-cost Unix platform to learn on or just play around with, this is it!
- Or, you can use it to trade up to a sparc (I think Sun is willing to give
- you $600 credit for a Sun 3 CPU towards a SPARC, but verify this first if
- you plan to use it for an upgrade).
-
- Offered at $350, which includes the CPU box, keyboard and mouse.
- I would prefer a buyer local to Orange County, CA to avoid having to
- ship it, but I'll consider all offers (you pay shipping, probably around
- $25 to pack & send it).
