Monday, I picked up a IIfx. That was a good day. Yesterday, I picked up a new (to me) Sun Ultra 1/140 w/ 17" Sun (Sony) monitor. Another good find, at only €40.Now if only that guy selling the Colour Classic would read his email and let me know we have a deal, I could declare ths good week a perfect week. ,xtG

Other than the monitors, there was some Sun boxes near me for about $40USD that I wanted to pick up, sadly I didn't, because I was getting the (dysfunctional) 6200...cool beans though, and wishes for many more perfect, and nearly perfect weeks to come  Official 68k videographer

It's gotten better just at the end. The guy who sold me the Ultra one just sent an email that they cleaned out a closet or something and ran into a bunch of SparcStation 4's and 5's. So we're working out a price at which I'll be picking up one of each.,xtG

AFAIK, the Ultra 1's are all gone, but there still are some SS4's and SS5's left: http://computer.2dehands.nl/markt/hele_systemen/sununixsgi/3544315.html.Ask Tom about the Ultra's, maybe you'll be lucky. ,xtG

Well, this is another good week. I seem to be raking in the SparcStations these days...Jusy ordered a SparcStation Voyager. Broken LCD, but I don't mind that much since I got it for a mere €40 + shipping. I hope I'll be able to fix it, though. ,xtG
