I've not used Interleaf on either the Sun or Mac II, but can give you
the following information (culled from an article in this month's
Computer Shopper):

*  Interleaf has announced a version that will run on the Mac II.  It
   is stated to support networking (details were fuzzy, but I infer
   that if you have an EtherSCSI or a Kinetics box you can work
   between Interleaf on the Mac and Interleaf on the Sun).

*  Minimum configuration is a Mac II with 5 megs of memory and 40 megs
   of hard-disk storage.

*  Price is $2495;  availability date wasn't stated.

*  Interleaf has signed a VAR agreement with Apple, which will permit
   them to sell bundled Mac II / Interleaf systems (turnkey, I guess).
   They sell a Mac II + Interleaf system for $10,900, and if you want
   a LaserWriter also the total ticket comes to $16,500

*  Address is Interleaf, Inc., Ten Canal Park, Cambridge MA 02141.
