The SPARCstation ZX is a graphical workstation produced by Sun Microsystems and launched on July 5, 1993, as part of the SPARCstation family. The original price was US$19,995(equivalent to $43,523 in 2024) (equivalent to $43,523in 2024). [3]
The SPARCstation ZX was identical to the SPARCstation LX, with the addition of a Sun ZX (also known as LEO) accelerated 3D framebuffer card. This was a double-width, double-decked SBus card providing 24-bit color and a performance of 440,000 3D vectors per second and 275,000 triangle mesh/second, when coupled with the SPARCstation ZX. [2] [4] It was intended to compete chiefly with Silicon Graphics and their Indigo workstation, [3] with Sun claiming that the SPARCstation ZX outperformed the latter's Indigo XS/24 in terms of triangle mesh/second (275,000 versus 50,000).
