[CLUE-Talk] Sun/Linux

[Grant Johnson]

One interesting thing that no one has mentioned is what happened less 
than a week before Sun announced adding a low end machine being Linux on 
Intel.  The cut Solaris on Intel as of version 9.

So, we have no Solaris on Intel.  OK, so what.  It was mostly just used 
for testing anyway.  How do we test?  Run them on Linux.  But then how 
to use them on Solaris?  Sun also announced added support for Linux 
binaries on Solaris as of, you guessed it, version 9.

Is this the split they are looking for?  Linux for the low end and 
testing, and Solaris on the top?  Take out NT at the bottom with Linux 
with a name like Sun supporting it, then give them a migration path to 
the big toys.
