Back at NCGR, we had the entire SA suite (big office with four cubies)
decorated with old boards.  Most were Sun4 or Sun3 VME, I also remember a
PPRO motherboard that pissed me off, a Supercard-1 (i860) VME card, and
bunches of other dead/bon-dead items.

As far as Sun2 stuff goes, I have a bunch stashed with a friend in New
Hampshire, I was considering having it shipped out here (CA) at some
point.  Didn't know there was a Sun2 porting effort underway, I'd love to
see one up and running again...  Of course, given the power situation out
here...  (We had rolling blackouts here in San Diego yesterday.)
