- The head of engineering at our department just came back from Comdex.
- He said Sun was showing their new SPARC Classic.
- He said that THEY said (the Sun people) it required Solaris 2.X to run.
-
- Another fellow here (a manager) was keeping his eyes open to software for
- Solaris 2.X. He says none of the shrink-wrapped software that we are currently
- using on our Suns (Sybase, uShare, etc.) work under Solaris 2.X, nor are any
- working updates of that shrink-wrapped software expected for the near future
- (whatever 'near' means).
-
- So, apparantly Sun has released a new machine for which there is no software.
- Heh, heh, heh :-)
-
- BTW, I don't think our company will be getting any SPARC Classic's for awhile.
