[Beds] SparcStation 20 going to anyone who wants it...

[gibbsie]

Darren,

Sparc's have a 13W3 connector (or the "weird" one as you put), so =
non-VGA.
It wasn't until the Sun Ultra that Sun boxes were equipped with VGA
connector based graphics adapters. =20

The Sparc's pump out a fixed frequency also, hence why their monitors =
don't
work on PCs.  Belkin however do do an adapter (or used to) for their
OmniView KVMs that allow you to control a Sun box (Sparc, Ultra, =
Enterprise,
whatever) via a PC monitor, keyboard and mouse.

Hope it helps.
Oliver

I might be tempted since I have a Sparc 5 without a monitor.  What sort =
of
connection does it have?  Is it the strange looking one....(i.e. not =
vga..)?

Hi,

I've got a spare SparcStation 20 that I'd like to get rid of. It doesn't
have any RAM (as I put it into my other one), but it does have a HD, =
CDROM,
mouse, keyboard and colour 17" monitor (which I think is fixed frequency =
-
certainly didn't work with my PC).

As I didn't pay anything for it, I am giving it away to anyone who would
like it, provided they pick it up or arrange to take it from my car at =
the
next LUG meeting.

Adrian St. John.
