I have a working/complete Sun Blade 100 system (w/ 1 GiB ECC RAM, DP17MO monitor, type 6 keyboard with Stop key, and Crossbow mouse) with Solaris 8/9 media and some documentation I'd like to find a new home for. In very good condition, has been used only a few times in 20+ years. CD-ROM has matching bezel. Needs NVRAM battery mod or a new module (especially if you don't keep it on), but manually setting it works without issue.

This is a great system for someone starting their collection, as it needs no to minimal work for 100% functionality, you can use some of your existing PC-compatible parts with it, and there are many OS options that should work on it for vintage or current operation, including Solaris 8/9/10, NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD 12, and Linux.

Will trade for Apple II/NeXT items, otherwise any reasonable offer will be considered. Pick-up meet preferred. Inquiries welcome.
