"I want to know more about the compatability."

You can share compiled files between 11xx machines and Suns. While recompiling
is recommended, I (and others) have had a lot of luck just loading in Lyric
.LCOMs and .DFASLs on a Sun.

Sysouts can also be moved from an 11xx to a Sun. (Because of some memory
management information that isn't kept up to date on the Sun, you can't make a
sysout on a Sun and load it on an 11xx. )

There are a few other changes in the file system, e.g., there are two file
devices {DSK} and {UNIX}. Both talk to the Unix file system, but {DSK} has
case-insensitive file name search and version numbers.

Maybe you have some more specific questions in mind?
