OTD 1982: The founding of #SunMicrosystems.
Graphic titled “TECH SPEC TUESDAY” featuring “Sun SPARCstation 1.” About this machine: “The very first of Sun Microsystem’s series of workstations built around their proprietary RISC processors was the SPARCstation 1. The SPARC processor ran at 20 MHz at first, and could run SunOS (Solaris), Linux, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. The starting price was $8995 in 1989 for a unit without any hard disk drive (or approximately $23,500.00 today)!” Specs table: CPU: SPARC @ 20 MHz Memory: 8 - 64 MB Storage: SCSI Hard Disk Drive Graphics: 1152 x 900 framebuffer Networking: Ethernet built-in Notes: Classic UNIX workstation Includes an image of a Sun SPARCstation 1 workstation and the text “vintage.computer.”
Tech Spec Tuesday: Sun SPARCstation 1 (1989)
SPARC @ 20 MHz, up to 64 MB RAM, SCSI storage, 1152×900 graphics, built-in Ethernet. A foundational UNIX workstation that helped define the RISC era.

I was reminded that on January 8th I celebrated 25 combined years at #SunMicrosystems and @Oracle focusing on multiple Java projects, many of which address the community.

Who the hell back in the days when Sun Microsystems still existed thought it’d be a great idea to put #Java in #browsers?
For those who are too young to remember, Java beans really slowed the uploading of web pages down, making Flash by Macromedia/Adobe look good.

For about 4 years I’ve had a saved search in the local classifieds app for a Sun Ultra 27 and today I was out and about and got an alert one was for sale. My jaw dropped when I saw it was in perfect condition and about 10 mins away from home. I bought it instantly! […]

Terraspring was an early cloud provider during the go-go "dot.com" days - pivoting to software after the crash.
I was on the board of directors.
