AFAIK it should be like my 3400.
It's a desk-side box with a BA213 chassis (19" wide). Bit higher and wider than
most PC 'big' towers, but a lot more solid :-)
Mine has a base with wheels, which makes moving it much easier..
Built-in DSSI controller and Ethernet, but unfortunately not yet supported
by NetBSD. You'll need at least a Qbus ethernet card to boot NetBSD or
a (T)MSCP controller.
Weight? I can just lift it. About 50 kilos.
Sorry, no image..
Bye, Arno.
