Yknow, with open firmware being forth based and the JVM being stack based, I'm half surprised SPARC didn't end up more stack-y

I picked up a 'Transtec Ultra 10' recently at the Cambridge Bring 'n' Byte sale.
So apparently, Sun sold ATX motherboards with UltraSPARC II processors to OEMs and consumers. You could build your own SPARC PC. It even supports PS/2 keyboards, and a regular old ATI Rage PCI graphics cards with a PC video BIOS, since it has open firmware code for that on the motherboard.
The Board is a Sun SPARCengine AXI.
Living my best Sun Microsystems ecosystem life in 2025
In my lifetime, there’s been one ecosystem I deeply regret having missed out on: the Sun Microsystems ecosystem of the late 2000s. At that time, the company offered a variety of products that, when used together, formed a comprehensive ecosystem that was a fascinating, albeit expensive alternative to Microsoft and Apple. While not really intended for home use, I’ve always believed that Sun’s approach to computing would’ve made for an excellent computing environment in the home.

Picked up some cool things at VCFMW, including this Sun-3 card cage that definitely needs some work. I figure it’ll make a neat restoration project at some point!

Please check it out thanks!!!!!!!♥
Got another Sun Ultra 5 today - threw Solaris 7 on it for the time being, but I do intend for this to be my Linux testbed for SPARC Linux
Also got a keyboard and mouse with this one, which makes me very happy.
Used my IBM server running Solaris 10 (post about that here) to boot the Solaris 7 installer, which went off without a hitch. After that, I installed the recommended patch cluster and then rebooted the system.
