| | Sun to drop Intel support in Solaris 9 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | Palo Alto, Calif.-based Sun decided the costs of support, such as bug tracking and software patches, for Solaris 9 running on Intel was not worth the cost to the company. |
 | | "If money were unlimited, I am sure it is fair to say Sun would have been quite content to continue to support Solaris on Intel forever," said Gordon Haff, an analyst at Nashua, N.H.-based Illuminata Inc. "Sun, like everyone else, is trying to save money these days." |
