tempting just to try one out with the Geiger counter my school picked up

@wendynather @davefischer Me, too. I don't miss them…

[chris_bloke@mastodon.acm.org]

@wendynather that brings back-aching memories.. when a friend and I would occasionally teach at the UK Civil Service College in the UK we’d load up a people mover with a collection of netbooting Sun Sparcstation SLC’s, networking gear and a little Sun box to boot them with for a sort of primitive CTF exercise. I do not miss that!

@wendynather @davefischer have you tried the RI Computer Museum https://www.ricomputermuseum.org/

And if you need transportation down there, lemme know.

Also, fellow RI geek

@dpp @wendynather

Yeah, we've traded a lot of things with them. (The RICM was started by a group of people that used to visit our museum.) I don't think they'll want these much, so I thought I'd try here first.

I used to have a monitor like the SUN one. It weighed 67 lbs.

[sawaba@infosec.exchange]

@wendynather I used to have one of these perched atop an Ultra 5!

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@wendynather

There are quite useful but they were soooo heavy and borderline impossible to ship anywhere

[wendynather@infosec.exchange]

@simonzerafa Oh, we shipped them from the US to Europe all the time. Those were the days …

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@wendynather

I remember trying to move some monstrous 22" multisync CRT monitor up two slights of stairs.

Really f*@#£ing heavy

[wendynather@infosec.exchange]

@simonzerafa Yup, we had 24” ones, because nothing was too good for our traders
