Wouldn't it be fun if someone would remake a #Sun2 or #Sun3 with modern components as people seem to do of just about every toy system these days.
Even the schemas and PAL code is out there, afaik, so should be fairly easy ? Or ?

Sun 2/120 booting SunOS 3.0
This is from 2004 when I got the machine. Cost me 2€, delivered.

The only tiny issue with those #m68k Suns is that they haven't seen power in almost 20 years. And I'm scared to even try. But the #Sun2 did boot at the time I got in 2004.

This badge on my Sun2/120 is cool, signatures of all the people that assembled, tested and inspected it.
Anyone you might know @aka_pugs ?

#suntember you say ? This is gonna be fun. Here are two of my favorites. A Sun2/120 and Sun3/60

@ball I think #NetBSD still builds tape boot files for #sun2, #sun3, #mvme68k, #sparc and #vax, though there looks to still be code to also install from tape on at least #alpha, #amiga, #atari and #hp300. Tsk, should just be for all the platforms :-p

Probably one of my most expensive system when new. Proper hardware this. #sunmicrosystems #sun2 #m68k #68010 #sunos

A christmas wish for this year, a Sun2/Sun3 emulator that does not suck. #retrocomputing #sun #sun2 #sun3 #RetroComputing #emulation
