That is true. Actually solaris is the first unix OS ported over
to merced emulator. Pretty ironic, right? And sun workstation can
run window NT as well. Seems to me, SUN treat wintel more serious
than wintel treats SUN at all front. And wintel camp just
underestimate their competition too much.

"..I heard that Solaris for X86 (which I run, its awesome!)
has been ported and sucessfully run on Merced. Is this
true? "

Sun announced that they have Solaris x86 up and running on a Merced Emulator (not to be confused with a real CPU like UltraSparc III or course...)
