Hello! Technically it was an UltraSPARC 5 or a 10, but definitely an UltraSPARC5 design. And yes I was surprised to see a conventional VGA style connector poking out of its back. ---- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature was once found posting rude messages in English in the Moscow subway."

Hello! I have here a SUN SPARC 5 system. For the longest it originally ran headless and attempted to either keep up as my website's server. And of course supply me with local files. The website end was downed a while later, the serving of files ended soon after.
Sparc 5 or Ultra 5?
Problem I now want to restart it as a desktop, and I believe it wears proprietary to SUN connectors for the keyboard and mouse. I did not see any at the swapmeet. 4 The keyboard is totally different , if its a "5" then normally they daisy chain... It did seem to wear a standard VGA type video out connector on its back though. thats odd, normally sparcs have the 13w3
Would anyone have a spare of the keyboard and mouse that would work on this system available?
sadly I am in the uk, so postage would kill this..
