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.
