Depends on which machines, really. Check eBay for similar ones. Your question is a little too general to get useful answers, I think.
It rather looks like a (very) low effort "for sale" post than a question. It should have been posted in the "Classifieds" section and I strongly urge the OP to become familliar with the rules of the classifieds board before posting there.

Back during the dot com boom one of the companies I worked for had a Sun Microsystems 4000 that was basically a power supply with blinking lights.

We rented rack space in a data center on the hudson river...folks would come in ( always at night for best effect ) and walk down the long windowed corridor with the manhattan skyline in total bloom to the data center and we would show them our Sun 4000. Clients and venture capitalists ate it up.

Those kind of sun machines?

I think he means something like a distributor tester. Or a scope. But I don't know. Could be an old 1950s engine tester thingie. Something to put in the corner and look at, really. Not of much use, it seems to me. I mean, they were cool back then, but...

There is still a huge market in the racing industry for distributor testers. In some categories, the vehicle must have a distributor and there is an art to fine tuning a distributor, right down to adjusting the spring tension of the advance plate. I have three different DT's, but not one is good for the high RPM's of the race car. Sun manufactured at least one model (probably more) that is highly sought after.
