Roger's Sun3 Page
I have recently acquired several Sun3's and associated pieces including
two Sun 3/50's with 19" mono monitors, a QIC-24 tape drive, Wren 500 MB
disk, several Quantum SCSI HD's, cases, cables, etc.
All three of them boot and run SunOS 4.1.1. They even run Sunview
and X11 (but slowly in the case of the 3.50's). Below is some of the
Information I picked up getting these things to work.

Resources
- If you have a Sun3 the information HERE is invaluable.
- You can get a Sun3 binary release of SunOS 4.1.1 at the above site.
- NetBSD for the 68k is supposed to run on a Sun3, but I haven't tried it.
- Requisite link to the Sun Hardware FAQ.
- Mike Buckles is a guy in the Houston area selling some Sun3 parts.
- I used the following "home made" adapter to run my Sun 3/60 with a PC multisync monitor. (NOTE: USE AT OWN RISK! Can damage some monitors.)
