Hi Chase/Rene
Sounds like a great project and would be happy to support.
I can send a working SS20 - I'm based in the UK.
I just spoke again to Rene on his mailing list for T2.. he said he has someone he is talking to locally to get some Sparc hardware but he isn't sure what all that will include.
Shipping from the UK would probably better than from the US though. What is in your SS20 build so I know if any parts I have will also be of use?
rene at exactcode.de you can email him there to see if he is interested in the SS20 let us know, he may want to wait a few weeks to get his other source sorted out.
I like how Rene has been doing this also because it gets new people interested, and it will also mean we have 2 modern OSes we can run on our hardware. Even when people can't get real hardware Temlib is now available for the mister FPGA board (so you can get a 3 CPU 50Mhz sparcstation for about $300).
Thanks!
Chase
