What are some affordable exotic unix workstations? I'm looking for SPARC, risk, mips based workstations.

They're all 800+ dollars and more.

Loved my Sun Blade 1000s, but they use way too much power for me to use any more.

Workstations are for peasants, real men collect TANDEM systems or mainframes. Git gud.

Here you go, plus you can actually install up-to-date software, trust me mips, sparc, risk and powerpc architectures are just dead, just buy an aesthetic x86 and sitck a Sun sticker on the side

>>61867241
I wish it could run PS2 games, like you double click on the CD and it runs the game
>>
>>61867556
Just press the reset button for that

topkek


I have a fully up to date RISC and POWERPC machines.

>>61867586
What's the point when x86 can run the same software better and cheaper

Did your mother get mad at the increase in her power bill after you set those fuckers up in her basement?

HP 9000-series workstations running on HP PA-RISC architecture.

>>61867170
That has my vote for best de.
>>
>>61867321
Its a de that was abandon years ago. It was petitioned to be open sourced and the company, seeing that it has no value in the modern world and never will again agreed to open sauce it.
They converted it over to work with linux irrc, but since its incompatible with a ton of shit it has very little use as a daily driver.

it's kind of vintage though
>>
>>61867321
It's interesting to see how cisc and risc architecture differs for historical reasons but if you want to really do anything you're pretty limited to things like old powerbooks with the g4
>>
Sun Blade 100/150s are cheap. The RS/6000 43p, hp 9000 c3000, and sgi Indy/o2 can be affordable too
