Found that out last night. I've got plenty of 4Mb SIMMs and a copy of
Solaris 2.51 and 2.6. I did find a reference to a Sun LocalTalk
Interface Card manufactured by Helios in Germany. My vision would be
to use the IPC as a LT bridge and file server using NFS and allowing
ethernet networked computers print to my Personal LaserWriter. The
SIMMs in the box were 80 ns, 9 bits.

It'll work, but it won't be much fun to use... The IPC can't take 16 MB
SIMM's, they need to be 4 MB ones, for a maximum of 48 MB (four banks
of
four SIMM's). They'll need to be 100 ns, 9-bit (parity) SIMM's, too.
With that amount of RAM and a pitiful 25 MHz MicroSPARC CPU, you'd be
better
off using Solaris 2.x, or maybe Solaris 7 at the most.
