I think it may just be enthusiasm run rampant. Which is perfectly cool. The cell processor has not even seen the light of day yet and I doubt that there is a pile of documentation available on it in any case. Yes it looks very fast and it is a very good thing that someone wakes up in the morning and looks at it and says "we have to get OpenSolaris ported to that puppy!". Great enthusiasm. Just think what the other extreme could be eh ? -- Dennis Clarke _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
