But is it still running on Cern/3.0, installed circa 1993. Ours is:

It's running on Sun Sparc hardware from the same era, and has been in active use for all of those 27 years.


I used to have a bunch of Sparc's circa-early 2000's. Sold some, recycled some, wish I'd have kept at least one. The price of a SparcstationLX that works is silly now-a-days.
