Tony, Solaris for x86 has been available for several years now, since Solaris 2.1. It is compiled for x86 chips and runs natively, it is not an "emulator" by any means. It performs very well and makes you wonder about NT when run on the same box. You may however be refering to Suns attempts at creating a 64bit version of Solaris for Merced, which is an emulator, since no Merced silicon exists today. Solaris for x86 is as Sun likes to say "bug level compatible" with the Sparc version. It's a good option when you need UNIX reliability and a "real" vendors support, unlike Linux.
