Still got that Quake executable? The 712 here says hi (in a SAIC Galaxy 1100).

I have a BriteLite IPX, an UltraBook IIi and a Tadpole Viper badged as the Sun Ultra-3. However, I'm rather fond of Solbournes, the other white SPARC meat. The S3000's flaring orange gas plasma is distinctive. I should finish restoring the Series 5 chassis and all those Kbus cards I have in storage.

Nice collection! I’ve never seen the S3000 in person, but from the photos I’ve seen it looks amazing. Love the orange plasma on my IBM PS/2 P70/P75!

Any chance you might be willing to help out by sending me some firmware or logo data? For the little B&W logos it could be as simple as typing “sun-logo 200 dump” at the ok prompt.

Let me see what I can do this weekend. The Sol PROM is more limited but I may be able to make it cough up something.
