Hi Peter,I'm in Tennessee, USA. I've been a huge fan of SPARC for quite a while. (I'd love to find an Enterprise class machine on the cheap!) I've gotten rid of most of the systems I had though (SS4, Ultra 1, Ultra30, Ultra60) but I still have a Blade 2500 that I'll probably never get rid of. I haven't used it in a while but am experiencing rekindled interest - seems SPARC support has grown a little in the Illumos world. I may be interested in stuff that's compatible with it. Not sure about shipping and customs issues that may exist but I'll look into it.

I'm in Brisbane, Australia, are there any Sun Sparc enthusiasts on the list?I have some Sun Microsystems parts taking up room in my house that I would feel too guilty to discard, was thinking maybe someone might want them for testing etc? Was hoping someone might appreciate them, many good memories with this gear.I have 4GB of memory & 2 Ultrasparc II 450 MHz CPU's to suit: Sun Ultra 30, 60 & 80, or Enterprise 450.Various multiple graphics cards, Creator graphics CG6 CG3, some I've forgotten, XVR-1000's, Linksys SAS cards, USB firewire cards, all Solaris compatible.A Sun Blade 1000 system with spare power supply, one of the UPA graphics slots has physical damage, I have a Ultra80 motherboard I was de-soldering a replacement connector from, but it turned out to be a little more difficult than expected. Also some spare fibre channel hard drives.I've also got two pairs of Crystal Eyes 3D glasses, these were very expensive in their day, including the Sun graphics infrared thing that syncs with Sun graphics cards. Might also work with SGI, I've forgotten.
