I first installed Solaris 2.5 on Intel (AMD actually) on a 386/40 with 8Mb
RAM.  It ran fine.  Sun pretty well shot its Intel market the same way IBM
blew its OS2 market: Overpriced the crap out of the OS and development
tools.  By the time they woke up and noticed that the market had moved on to
other stuff, it was too late for a price drop to do any good.  I'm wonder
why Sun keeps the X86 version around.  Maybe Scott is just stubborn.

Anyone have ideas on this?

Sun is now going after the intel market too.  Is this just a new version of
their Solaris x86, or a completely new build?
