[slackware-sparcdevel] Those PCI-enabled 32-bit SPARCs

I know we had a long discussion about these machines and whether or not
they really exist. Well, I found they do exist and that Sun actually made
PCI-enabled 32-bit SPARC systems. I felt really stupid when I finally
figured it out...

Anyone remember the JavaStation line? :)

Those are the machines in question. They are CPU equivalent to a SS4 or
SS5 and have a stripped down PCI bus to drive the PS/2 mouse and keyboard.
And they were made by Sun. It never ever occurred to me to look at those
machines.
