Futhermore, as of Internet Super Server 4.0, the FAQ on BSDi's site indicates that SPARC and PowerPC ports are in the works for shrink-wrapped versions, and it also implies that large corporations can make case-by-case arrangements to get these architectures. <:) Lyndon On 10 Mar 2000, Christian Weisgerber wrote: > Lyndon Griffin wrote: > > > What I think I know is that, even though BSD/OS has a SPARC port, > ^^^ > I understand that BSD/OS *had* a SPARC port once, but AFAIK that > has been retracted from their commercial offerings for years.
