"not even close... solaris 10 requires a 200+ mhz ultra sparc.... that rules 
"out any ultra 1 and ultra 2's that aren't running 300+mhz cpus

[eg. no us1 chips, only us2 and above]

yeah, i saw that pg...  but i keep hearing that s10 -does- have sun4m
support in it.

"solaris 9 may run on the sparcstation 4 but needs at least 128 megs of ram.
