Sun Sparc station

Anything relating to CD-i can be discussed in this forum. From the multiple hardware iterations of the system to the sofware including games, reference, music and Video CDs. Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

Yes, it's a workstation from Sun Microsystens (www.sun.com) using the SPARC (Scalable Processor ARChitecture) processor. I don't think Sun makes these anymore...

Probably not widely used, sparcs were expensive in the days.
