Ditto! had one back in the day, my parents bought it, and it's still in
their basement, i even ready through the BASIC programming manual, and
learned some of it.  This was quite some time ago.  as a the video game
console, "The Attack" can't be beat

Ditto again! same monitor i imagine mine not until about 1998, got it
from my former employer who hadn't used it in years, and had forgotten
they even had it.

a sparc 5/70 given to me by a friend who didn't have a clue what he was
doing with it.  Summer of 2000, 17"monitor, 192MB RAM 2 1GB disks, and
it was free.

sm41's too)

Thus far, i think the o2.  but there's more to come there. (btw, anyone
run seti at home on a mips? my o2 r5k took about 40 hours to do a data
unit, is there something messed up with it?)

i just had to respond, as i had a couple of very similar answers.
