Re: Sun Ultrasparc
Hot air is your friend when trying to get that epoxy potting off. It crumbles if heated to ~200C.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

Ok yes I saw that indeed but I don't have a hot air station but I assume the correct metal pins are now exposed for receiving a wire. So a knife also works.
