SPARC Workstation

Agent Buckshot Moose · 06-19-2011, 04:23 PM

So, I think I'm getting an old SPARC workstation soon for next to nothing. It's a Sun Blade 2000. Any idea what I should do with it? I already have a server with 1.5 TB of hard drive space serving media and a few other applications. I can't upgrade the space in this thing higher than 73 GB as far as I understand, although I haven't tested such yet.

Ideas I've had:
1. Set up a thin client network in my apartment (Why? Because I can.)
2. Use it as a secondary server for some of my other applications.
3. Programming SPARC applications. Not that it would be much different from programming x86 applications when it comes to my line of work...
