I think this is called a Cobalt Qube. The software for which is now Open
Source:

Ars Technica: Sun open sources Cobalt Qube/Raq software
<http://www.arstechnica.com/news/posts/1073078201.html>

   "The Qube's back-end and UI software has officially
    gone Open Source under a BSD-style license. The custom
    BIOS code is available here, and the other stuff, now
    called Blue Quartz, is available here."

Nice article, Ars does a good job, as usual, with good pointers to other
resources.

Have at it.
