Questions about IPX, LX, Classic.
Paul Boven
Hi everyone,
As I'm planning to get a new old Sun to replace my ELC, I'd like to
ask for some advice.
What I'm looking for is something that has colour, a floppy, and a
printer-interface. Ethernet has to be AUI or UTP.
I'm thinking along the lines of an LX, Classic or IPX. What are the
differences in performance between these? Which ones have floppies/
parallel port and what kind of ehternet do they have?
What's the difference in performance between the various on-board
graphics cards?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards, Paul.
P.s. quotes that match what I'm looking for are welcome, too.

The SSLX is the best it has:-
10baseT ethernet
GX+(1152x900)with vsim(1600x1024)
2 serial
parallel port
3.5" floppy
16 bit stereo audio
The LX is faster than the IPX but seems much faster cuz of onboard GX+
