[SPARCbook] For Sale: 3GX, 128M

[Craig W]

I have a Tadpole Sparcbook model 3GX, 128Mb RAM, 1.2G HDD, 110MHz
MicroSPARC-II CPU.  When I got the unit, it was evidently previously owned
by Oracle (ARIN says the IP it was configured with is registered to them)
and it is almost brand-new (the keyboard, and, most tellingly, the mouse
pointer have zero wear).  However, the display is dim (I believe the
backlight is out) and the battery is good for a max 2 minutes at full
charge.  I have been running it with an external 17" monitor in
1152x900 at 66Hz mode, and a type 5c keyboard, and it's absolutely
spectacular as a portable workstation.  Includes external 10Mbps ethernet
transceiver, carry case, and power cable.  Solaris 2.6 + Tadpole utils are
currently installed, and I have the backups of the Solaris 2.4 partitions
it came with.  Asking $400.  I'm selling it because my company is likely
going out of business in a few months and I can't really have any toys any
more :/.  Shipping not included.  Please forward this to whoever you think
may be interested, or mail me.  I'm in L.A. if anyone would like to
inspect the unit.
