How does hosting a church on Sundays to the exclusion of computer history events further the mission of the Computer History Museum? It fucking sucks as a venue for VCF West now since it’s restricted to Friday and Saturday.

My second #suntember post is this #SunMicrosystems #Sparcstation model 47 service code 4/50 #development case. Yes, you read that label right: "not for customer use"! This would normally have a #sparc processor in it, so worthy of #sparctember as well.

This is how I found the case, on the curb in #siliconvalley #sillyvalley a few years ago during spring cleaning week. I ended up trading this someone in the #vintagecomputing community at #vcfw for a #lenovo #thinkpad, #dockingStation, and some other accessories. I know they will enjoy the case more than I was, sitting in my garage unused & unseen.

Hey @aka_pugs what can you share about this find?

My first post for #suntember is this #SunMicrosystems #Developer connection beanbag. I picked this up via #freecycle from a prior #Sun employee who scored it at a #java #developers conference of theirs. It is in almost perfect condition but for two spots on the bottom of the beanbag, near the zipper. I ended up gifting this to an individual in the #vintagecomputing community a couple of weeks ago at #vcfw.

I know they will enjoy it more than I was, sitting in my garage unused.
