I can't tell you much about the hardware, but if you need an OS,
NetBSD (http://www.netbsd.org) OpenBSD (http://www.openbsd.org)
run on the Sparc platforms, and they are free.

Have you opened up the machine to check the SIMM slots? Chances
are it needs 30-pin SIMMs, probably with parity, in 1 MB or 4 MB
modules. It almost certainly uses SCSI hard drives. If you've got
some BNC connectors on the back, those would be for a colour display,
and would likely work with most multisync monitors today (although
you've got to worry about needing zero, one or two sync cables).
If it's a DB-9 connector, it may want a Sun monochrome TTL monitor.
