In the week that sunw gave up on SPARC and began "sleeping with the
enemy,?

And MSFT slipped into bed with SGI (joke!)
Wait until INTC finds out how good SUNW is in bed!
The only regret they'll have is that they didnt sleep with each other earlier!

"Gave up on SPARC and began sleeping with the enemy" is not a fair characterization. That's like saying Microsoft abandoned the Intel architecture when it ported NT to the Alpha. BTW, Solaris has been running on Intel microprocessors for years, so putting it on Intel's next generation should not be surprising.

JMHO.
