RIP my Ultrasparc workstation from back in the day (early 00's) running RF and Microwave design software. Computer labs back in EE school in the 90's were 5s and IPC/IPX, with a few 20 with 64MB of RAM for serious electromagnetic computations. I thought it was the cat's meow when I had my own IPX at home I bought for only $200. Now everything is win blows.
Wasn't the stealth bomber's radar cross section optimized on a Sparc 1?
- valarauca1 12y agoA lot of Late 80's and 90's CAD was done on SPARC's. In fact you can still find some shops running old Sun CAD machines since its the only CAD software the Production Manager knows or some strange reason like that.
- madengr 12y agoThose old sparcstations ran, and ran, and ran. My IPX outlasted it's battery a couple times, hence programming the mac address COFFEE.
