- Wait a minute! WHAT! I must be misunderstanding something here. What
- happened to binary compatibility? I'm not committed to Solaris 2 (yet).
- One of the reasons I want a SUN is to have the option of 4.1.x or
- try the new Solaris 2.x. Someone please explain/verify.
- The LX won't run 4.1.x (solaris 1.0)?
