Hello,
My clear-out has just revealed a complete install pack on CD for Solaris

I'm interested. I have a Sparc Solaris 8, not sure when my copies of
Intel 8 would show up.
let me poke the web for iso's on the solaris. The Oracle, i guess is
developer versions? Main interest would be Solaris of course.
thanks
