Just out of curiosity. I've heard Sun has done a port of FreeBSD to
SPARC. Is it true? When I heard it, I thought it was a shame they
didn't just take NetBSD/sparc. Would it be possible they didn't know
any better than porting an OS when there's a perfectly fine OS already
running on their platform?
