- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 and Solaris 10 on x86
- Sun Microsystems has positioned Solaris 10 on x86 (written Solaris 10/x86) as an alternative to Linux. On the surface, Sun appears to have a reasonable story to spin around Solaris 10/x86 in comparing it to Linux. Sun hypes its allegedly lower support costs, the Solaris feature set and indemnification. However,...

- Installing Solaris 9 OS, x86 Platform Edition - One User's Experience
- Supporting heterogeneous environments requires more hours and effort than sticking to one hardware and software platform. The downside of complete homogeneity lies in the fact that higher-end servers require faster and more scalable hardware while desktops and small servers can get by on cheaper x86 hardware. To bridge this gap...

- Breaking the Chains - Using LinuxBIOS to Liberate Embedded x86 Processors
- While x86 processors are an attractive option for embedded designs, many embedded developers avoid them because x86-based systems remain dependent on a legacy BIOS ROM to set up the system. LinuxBIOS is an open source solution that replaces the proprietary BIOS ROMs with a light-weight loader. LinuxBIOS frees the developer...
