[rescue] HW && SW observations :: WAS:::2009 prototype Sun system for sale on eBay

[Jerry Kemp]

As I (personally) stew forward and think more about this system, the seller identifies the CPU as an UltraSparc IIIi, as shown in
the eBay description.  But many of us are aware, Oracle/Sun depreciated all older Sparc CPU's with Solaris 11.0 GA arrival, leaving
support for T-series and M-series.  In theory, an UltraSparc IIIi CPU would have been dropped after Solaris 11 Express.

But OTOH, The youtube boot video identifies the CPU as an UltraSPARC T-2, most common to me in Sun T51xx and T52xx systems.  Actual
list of systems the T2 CPU was in listed here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UltraSPARC_T2

But as the video progresses (7) [console] lines forward, the root nexus is clearly identified as "Sun Wollemi Desktop".  It seems
clear to me that the eBay posting probably incorrectly list the CPU as the UltraSparc IIIi.

In closing, I'm not in any way suggesting any deception from the seller, I'm just attempting to figure all this out in my head.
With the excitement of this auction, IMHO, this is probably the best time as any, while we are focused on this system, to try to
work thru and identify all the neat things that this system would have offered.

More than anything, I'm curious as to what frame buffer was shipped as part of this system, providing DVI and HDMI outputs.
