    Sun Microsystems Inc. has done an about-face with regard to its
    January decision not to offer Solaris 9 for the Intel x86
    architecture going forward.

In addition:

    On Monday, Sun CEO, Chairman and President Scott McNealy will also
    unveil a new, general-purpose x86-based server, the Sun LX50, at a
    press event. It is the first Sun system to feature the company's
    own enterprise-ready Linux operating system, known as Sun Linux
    5.0, which is based on the 2.4 kernel and optimized for a 32-bit
    x86 system.
