Bill, I run Solaris 2.6 on a 32Mb SS2 all the time at home.  It
runs fine as a single user workstation with that amount of memory.
I don't do builds, but I always have Netscape, an e-mail client
and often a few other Motif apps running.  Saying that you need
64Mb for Solaris is simply not true, though more memory never hurts.
