## 5. The wonderful SparcStation Voyager

Nearly ten years ago in 1994, Sun microsystems introduced the SPARCStation Voyager (ss240). This computer was a Sun4m architecture, powered by a microSPARC II processor. It is a very compact computer, behing a hybrid between a desktop and a Laptop. It has the footprint of a very compact workstation with a builtin color LCD display, PCMCIA and InfraRed ports with a 2"5 SCSI harddrive. I have seen one at the CCC in Berlin, runing Debian GNU/Linux but the InfraRed and PCMCIA ports are not supported. Its datasheet is actually very impressive:

- 60 Mhz microSPARC
- up to 80MB RAM
- up to 810MB fast SCSI 2 Harddrive
- 5.5 by 14.5 footprint
- 12" 1024x768x8 color LCD or 14" monochrome or 14" display in 1152x900
- Ethernet 10 display
- storage temperature -25C to 60C
- operating temperature 0C to 40C
