First, is it axiomatic that Sun _have_ dropped x86 off Solaris 9? 

Even so, given the slight lunacy of the product, I'd be inclined to 
deplore Sun revenue being syphoned off in that way and therefore
would urge support for:

Joking apart, we're hearing that SunGrid stuff has been suddenly
and unceremoniously dropped. Surely that's a far worse, high-handed
decision and of greater concern to heavy-compute-addicted groups
around Cam...? Can anyone confirm/deny...?
