I'm not sure about a 3/75, but I think its a single board workstation (as indicated by its two digit (X/75) suffix) based on a Sun 3/100 CPU. Basically a 3/50 but with the faster 68020 from the 3/100 series. A 3/110 was a 3 slot enclosure but with a color monitor and supporting framebuffers. It used the 3/100 series carrera CPU board. A 3/140 was the same enclosure (and same CPU, the carrera, because of its 3/1XX model) as the 3/110 but did not include color hardware. We used alot 3/140's. A 3/160 obviously has the same CPU board as all other 3/1XX series machines. The enclosure is indicated by the X/X60 model convention as a 12 slot 9U VME deskside enclosure.

The 3/75 was the low-end diskless machine before the 3/50 and 3/60 were built. It's basically a desktop 3/160 with only 2 VMES slot (as opposed to the 3/50 and 3/60, which have no VME slots), one of which is used for the CPU board.
