[ale] SUN VM

[Jeff Lightner]

There are Sun Chauvinists in the world.  Perhaps he ran across one who
extolled the virtues (and virtualizations) of Solaris.  I run across
them regularly on the LinuxQuestions site - they always seemed miffed
when I infer Solaris isn't the be all and end all of UNIX computing.
That's silly when of course everyone knows HP-UX fills THAT role.  ;-)

I wasn't advocating the Sun solution per se - just noting it's out
there.

Thanks, I really don't understand this specific customer wanting a
pure Solaris solution.  All he ever talks about are MS server apps.

He must be really confused.
