Not yet, but I think it's only a matter of time before we start to see
Linux on larger Sun computers.  IBM is doing it now.  If it works for IBM,
Sun will do it too.  The machines are expensive, the OS is cheap.  They
will give the people what they want and the people will want Linux because
sysadmins will be used to it.
