- Your points are well taken, but what are the alternatives? It appears
- the latest Sparc products won't run anything but Solaris. Is OSF1 any
- less distasteful? There's the 4.4BSD-on-Suns project; but then 4.4
- is rather different from the BSD we all know and love too; and it
- presumably won't run on the new Sparcs either.
