I don't know what to think about this. Isn't this basically giving up the ghost on Solaris? But on the other hand, no matter the underlying OS or hardware, it seems like Sun will be able to take advantage of the situation. Seems like a hedge bet to me than perhaps any real use, unless they embed it into Solaris.

I was just about to try VirtualBox on Os X, by the by. Has anybody here tried it?

VirtualBox is fun. My kids use it to play their favorite old windows games on their OSX laptops. It seems to be about as functional as VMware was a few years go. The biggest difficulty I encountered setting it up was getting the drivers you need installed in the guest os.
