Sun Microsystems for the win

In essence, we decided to innovate, not litigate.
Hooray for Sun.

Hi.I’m a huge fan Sun Microsystems inc.I’ve got most of they’re products (eg;OpenOffice.org) nd they’re nothing but quality.I’m thinking of getting the Solaris operating system since my PC was designed for 2000 but runs on XP.I was just wondering, can you still run Internet Explorer and other Ms software on it?I am hopefully getting a new computer soon with Vista Biz.So I was gonna get Solaris on this. Thanks in advance 🙂
Generally speaking you won’t be able to run Windows software on Solaris, although you may have some luck trying a port of wine.
I’d strongly recommend against Internet Explorer for daily browsing 😉 , but if you need it for website testing etc. IEs4Linux may well work on Solaris (you’ll need to get wine installed first, though).
Thanks.As you could see,I do use Firefox.I was just wondering about “Live.com” products, for example, Windows Live Messenger.Could you explain a little bit more about ‘Wine’ please?
