The TFN has NEVER sold or disposed of ANY Sun SPARC machines. As well, the
TFN has never offered for sale any Sun SPARC computers. The TFN has
recieved and then donated four Motolorla Unix boxes to other community
networking projects in southern Ontario, as well the TFN got an IBM AIX
Unix box that was passed on to a community netowrking project in Manitoba,
all of these machines were donated out of the TFN's hands over 1.5 years
ago.  As for Unix for SPARCs well, Red Hat (www.redhat.com) will sell you
a port of Linux (a Unix clone) for SPARCs for $189 (US), so lack of an OS
would never be a serious issue.

Try asking questions that can be answered.
