Um, not *quite* sure it counts for here, but, I got my very first ever online commission slot sold... :) No prizes for guessing that I'm very proud indeed. :thumbsup:
I'm just giving my wrists a brief break, and having a quick check of AmiBay while I'm at it.
Congratulations! :DQuote:

received a SC-55 Mk2 a couple of days ago, surprisingly it is in excellent condition (they tend to show wear in the buttons and back area where the connections are)

I also wound up with an O2 recently, as well as an old 040-based HP Apollo workstation (need a keyboard and mouse for that one, though.) I seem to be accumulating a fairly wide variety of old Unix workstations, which is odd considering I'm not a huge fan of Unix. (The Apollo I got because I thought it was one of HP's FOCUS machines, but I figure that as a decent 68k machine whose components are all supported by open-source OSes, it wouldn't be too bad a system for me to dabble with my OS development ideas on...)
One thing to consider John is that IRIX doesn't really feel like a BSD or Tru64 UNIX OS since its one of the first that had a GUI and kind of feels like a bigger version of an Amiga, just prettier and more colourful.
Anyways hit the case with some Magic Eraser on any scratches or scuffs then Armor All - makes the case shine and look nice
Yeah, it kinda strikes me that way - I first noticed it to a lesser extent with Solaris, but commercial Unix in general seems to be a more polished and professional user experience than the anarchy of Linux-land. It'll be interesting to experiment with it a little more and see how much that impression is borne out.
