I know this is a long shot, but is there any place in Thailand that has SUN Sparc hardware for sale?  I'm looking for a SUN blade to run some legacy SPARC application (yeah, freakin dinosaur code)

Would it run on Solaris for Intel ? I've not seen any sparc stuff in Thailand at all, but I am also interested in this. Does the source code exist to be cross compiled ?

I doubt you'll get a blade, but maybe an old sparcstation is on ebay... If it's any help, I've seen third party sparcs in Asia.

The app I have must run on a SPARC cpu... apparently won't run on an cpu emulator either.

Maybe you can get it loaded somewhere else and telnet/citrix to it?? Tough for maintenence though if you are actually working on the prog.


Did you have a look up there?

Not completely hopeful but speak to thaiineternetwork (google it).
They are the best local online shop I have found for networking/server stuff.
Not seen second hand stuff on there but they could know people that do.
Not sure if they speak much English, Ive always had the staff call.
