Hi,
may I just fill in here as a friend of Joerg, with some knowledge of old sun
equippment since I worked for sun in the field service, times agob&.
It is Sun 3/50 and Sun 3/60 systems that we encountered in the appartment
and basement of Joerg.
Berthold AG used these Workstations for fototypesetting. The 3/50s partly
come with a Memory expansion from Solflower if I remember this correctly.
One had to replace 2 GALs with 2 furnished with the expansion mezzanine
board, the other 2 where taken from the 3/50. The mezzanine connected to
the mainboard via the DVMA, MMC and the 4 GAL-chips. The mezzanine
used ordenary PC-1MB Dimms of these days for memory expansion. But we
hadnbt inspected the boards found in the basement individually if they hat
those mezzanines installed. Although there are some of those boards around
Rolf
