In the 1980 document, it's described as a single 68000 serving up to 16 seats. "only the basic Pup Telnet protocols need be implemented on the workstation's MC68OOO processor. The SUN terminals could then be programmed to emulate currently available terminals, such as Datamedias, Telerays, Tektronix 4014 graphics terminals, or III displays." https://stacks.stanford.edu/file/druid:gg867qx3134/gg867qx3134.pdf But by 1982 it looks much like a classic workstation. "The SUN Memory Management Unit has been designed to support a multitasking operating system such as Bell Lab=E2=80=99s UNIX." http://i.stanford.edu/pub/cstr/reports/csl/tr/82/229/CSL-TR-82-229.pdf
