    This is wrong. Just because you cannot order one from Sun does not mean they
    are no longer available. If you had bothered to find the NVRAM FAQ for Sun
    machines you would see there are 2 electronics suppliers that stock
    replacements.

    www.mouser.com

    www.digikey.com

    I suggest that you know what you are talking about before giving totally bogus
    info. I also suggest that you consult the NVRAM FAQ as well. Remember google
    and FAQ's are your friend.
