- As I understand it Solaris has something called 'binary compatibility mode'
- that will allow one to run SunOS 4.x programs. The question we need to
- get answered is how well SAS 6.07 and SAS 6.09 run in this mode. Does
- anyone know whether or when a Solaris version of 6.09 is scheduled for
- release?
