It's amazing sometimes to see how much modern software compiles and runs without fuss on UltraSPARC systems. Projects like LLVM still include UltraSPARC, even if Solaris on UltraSPARC isn't horribly popular these days.
The number of packages for NetBSD on UltraSPARC is huge:

And while you wouldn't want to run stuff like Rust on a machine with 192 megs of memory, it's impressive that you can run Rust on a machine from 1995.
