With a desire to learn more on BSD, SunView, etc., I have an opportunity to obtain several Sun 2/x systems. I would appreciate answers to the following questions: 1. What is the major differences between the following models, 2/50, 2/120, 2/170? 2. Sun states that Sun OS 4.0.3 is available for the above systems. Any comments on how it well it works on a 2/x, or should I try to find the 3.5 OS. Any advice for a Sun novice would greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Tom Roehr New Jersey, it's not a state, attmail!scuzzy!tomr it's a state of mind. NOTE: If you could, mail replies to internet!attmail!scuzzy!tomr I do not have access to the net.
