Sparc 2's are pretty limited boxes. In fact 64MB is as big as it can get RAM wise. Also, the 40mhz processor isn't exactly rip-roaring fast.

But, you could serve a popular static or download site on one of these machines quite nicely. Just don't try to do anything dynamic with a database or a BBS.

1650GB Transfer? Maybe, if it is an all file downloads site. Sign up and go for it. :D

Oh, and one other thing. The machine is at least 8 years old, so I would ask about parts availability before you buy. I owned a Sparc 2 and had to buy another one for parts because parts are near impossible to find for these machines.

Take care,

Brian

I'd make you an offer on one, but I'm short on cash right now.

Stupid truck, had to blow a tranny... :(

That's exactly what I was wondering when this thread was first created, but I have no interest in a sparc so I didn't say anything :)
