Just discovered a Sun Ultra 10 in the crawlspace under my house. Trying to decide if I want to ask the landlord about it or just let sleeping SPARCs lie; god knows I've got enough old computer hardware around already.

I refurbished my Ultra 10 two years ago and played around with the different BSD flavours. Eventually I went back to Solaris 9 (to have proper hardware acceleration on the Creator3D card)... it's a fun machine to doodle around with and I boot it up whenever I'm in the mood for some C coding.
