Better (newer and faster stuff). ;)

This station has an extension card (looks like a Sun SWIFT SBus adapter)
with an Wide-SCSI and Fast-Ethernet port. The built-in interfaces are
Narrow-SCSI (picture bottom right) and 10 Mbit/s Ethernet (TP port on
the bottom row).

It is a lean version of a SparcStation5 missing the audio support
(interfaces) and has just the workstation specific DB13W display interface,
but with a slightly faster Sparc CPU (32-Bit architecture).

Is a CD-ROM built into it (the slots are on the box side, not on the
picture)? A hard disk is probably built-in, but it was common to attach the
disks in external disk bays or run it diskless (NFS served).
