Yes, sure.
The keyboard is not a problem, but:
Our Sparc stations at the institute
(http://www.dbai.tuwien.ac.at/address/ if you are interested) are very
selectiv which monitor they accept.
That means, one monitor which works on one Sparc station doesn't work on
a second one and vice versa. I can't say if it's the fault of the
computer or the monitor.
And I can't take a bunch of monitors with me to get one running.
So we have a few options:
o You come to the institute and test which monitor works. If you are
coming from far away, this might be impossible for you.
o I take an adapter (13W3 <--> VGA) and/or a cable (13W3 <--> BNC) with
me and you organize a VGA monitor by yourself. (Be warned: TFT monitors
usually won't work with older Sparcs.)
If there are a lot of monitors available, one should fit.
o I have a 17" monitor which worked with almost any computer. Still no
guarantee.
o A Sun GDM-20E20 (20", 18.3 inch viewable) with a 13W3 connector.
Should work with any Sun.
o We have a few 20" / 21" monitors from Nokia, Philips, Sony. If you
know one (or more) model/type which works with your SS it might be
possible that this one is available.
Which option is the best for you?
FYI: This event is from 5th to 7th june but I won't be there on 7th.
So someone I know (personally!) should take the hardware after the event.
Alfie?
