It's been quite a while since I've been online here, but I thought this might interest people here.

Today I have cleared out most of my sparc collection, that is, all the pizza boxes. Gone to the trash are:

About 5 SS20, 3 SS5, 1 SS10, 4 SS4, 2 U1 and 1U2 and one SS1000 gutted apart from plain main board and some have a PSU left
The main board of the SS1000 is pulled.

I now have frankensteined some remaining machines together and specs are:

SS1+ with unknown specs, I think it has 64M ram.
SS4 with audio board, CDROM, SS5 PSU and SCSI backplane (3 internal drives) and 160M ram.
SS5/110 with LEGO (24Bits gfx), 128M CDROM and 2 internal drives
SS20 with 2*Ross 150MHz, 384M ram, CG14 24bits GFX, CDROM and floppy. I think fast ethernet as well.
Ultra2 3DCreator with 2*400MHz UltrasparcII CPUs and 2 G ram and a DVD drive.

I still have to sort out about 5-10 lunchboxes, but not today, I'm done with sorting computers. I might move the SGI TP9100 stuff to the place that was previously occupied with the Sparcs but that is about it.

I may have some spare sparc parts left over that people could use. I don't think it's anything special, but this stuff is getting rare so I may hold the key to getting your systems running.

Damn, I've been looking for a SunCD to fit my SS20 at a price that doesn't border on extortion.

Luckily, I pulled those, but I suck at shipping.

I know that feel.

Well, that might prove to be a problem regarding local pickup or using someone as a courier. I might get to shipping some sooner or later though. Don't feel ashamed to nudge me via PM or bother me on the IRCchannel.

Decided to toss the SS1000 main board. It's huge and I'll never use it. The CPU modules, RAM (only 8M sticks unfortunately) and the EPROMs are ripped off.

Yeah, international shipping would definitely be a hassle, don't sweat it. But if I can't find any good SS20 hardware over here, I might give you a PM sometime.
