Heh, maybe I should try installing that on the old Ultra I have
sitting under my desk collecting dust. I tried upgrading it from
Solaris 9 to Solaris 10 a couple of years ago and got a rude message
telling me that the hardware is obsolete. As if. ;-)

It runs at 150 MHz, I think. And Solaris 9 defaulted to 32-bit mode
because there was some hardware bug or somesuch that could lock up the
machine in 64-bit mode if the CPU was less than 200 MHz :)

I never tried putting Myth on it, but it would run DB2 v8. Barely.
