I for one welcome this new initiative.
I like Solaris, running mainly on Sparc, but have a couple of Solaris8/x86
running mainly for sentimental reasons.
I was sorry to see the Solaris/x86 port go, and welcome it back.
I would love to try it out on a clustered Intel setup running Solaris and
Oracle9i RAC.
If it could be comparable with RedHat running RAC cluster, I would be one
happy camper.
To me, the Solaris/x86 revival make more sense than a Sun/Linux distro in the "me-too" category.
