If I can
mention items that I have owned, the list becomes slightly
longer: a PC532, Symbolics MacIvory II and a TI microExplorer.
What happened to the MacIvory II and microExplorer?
If we're considering MacIvories in this category, there's one sitting
next to me (MacIvory III in a IIci host, 8MW RAM, Genera 8.3).
Why wouldn't we? They're actually really rare, and quite nice.
Some of us have been looking for a MacIvory or a microExplorer for a very
long time. It requires quite a bit of luck to acquire one.
And a lot of money. Mine was a cool $4kmumble from DKS directly, but when it
arrived the board wasn't recapped, the case was cracked, the machine was
troublesome and the hard disk was flaky. I ended up recapping it, replacing
the hard disk and case and a few other parts, and rebuilding Genera. Total
cost, not counting the time I sunk into the damn thing, was around $6000.
I guess it's fun, but the 164LX under the bench running OpenGenera on Tru64
is leagues faster.
