We have a SPARC IPX online (albeit firewalled from the Internet) doing production tasks for $reasons. It's been online since about 1992. The hard drive sounds like a metal grinder.
Anyone else have an IPX or older online for non-novelty purposes?
Edit: 30 years now!
- sgt 5y agoI ran a SparcStation 5 until about 2006. About 30 users.
- mkovach 5y agoI use to run an uptime server (http://uptime.openacs.org http://uptime.openacs.org) and a tiny url server (http://myturl.com http://myturl.com) on an old SparcStation pizza box until 2006, when the final hard drive I was going to buy for the best finally dead.
- sgt 5y agoThat's hilarious. I also ran a tiny URL server off my SS5. Nowadays that service would have been cloud based and cost $1k/mo in AWS costs for the same amount of users.
