Two more points for not adding a :-) and making the joke obvious.
For those who don't believe me, just follow the link describing
the machine (IC35), and also look at
http://gsho.thur.de/fun/Sun-e450-IC35/IMG_1613.JPG
to see what actually _is_ running Solaris.
The unifier is little more than a toy, 2MB of Flash memory, a measly
CPU, of much less use than a PalmOS device because of the
unextendability (closed API).
