The above is mainly on IBM selling Solaris on their xSeries boxes. But on the second page: <quote> Zeitler sounded bullish about the prospects of running Solaris on the System Z mainframes. "It is certainly something we would like to see happen," he said. "We don't have an agreement signed. (But) you should look to see it happen in the future for sure." In a real shocker, Zeitler also noted that he "would like to see" some Solaris on System P work, which would have Solaris compete head-to-head with AIX.
