Does anyone know if the source code to those SunOS graphic demos are available? I'd love to see and play with the suncube code especially. I tried to find it, but the best I found was an old tape archive file of SunOS 2.0 - and I have no idea how to easily restore that (plus, I doubt source code was included, and it was for m68k - so yeah, it might take some work to get it running again, if a VM exists).
EDIT: I did find out information about something called "TME" The Machine Emulator (http://people.csail.mit.edu/fredette/tme/) which apparently can emulate various m68k systems to run SunOS on top of, so in theory, I might be able to get this tape archive installed and running.
But again, I doubt that the source code is included, which is what I'd really like to see...
For future explorers:
I found this:

Download the file "SunOS 4.1.4 Solaris 1.1.2 Source" - go to the "demos" directory and a bit of searching you can find the "suncube.c" file.
Lots of dependencies on "suncore" graphics libs and such, but the code is there. Also - check out the /games folder - it has C source in it for "adventure", "hack" (nethack), and "trek" (star trek).
