Now Torvalds and his allies face a new side of that old competitor. Sun has turned Solaris into an open-source project. The company also is building its own community of programmers around Solaris, while promoting the operating system's deployment on the widely used computers with x86 processors, such as Intel's Xeon.
Torvalds - interview with CNET News.com :
Question : What do you think of what Sun is doing with Solaris 10--technology improvements, open source, and the move to x86 chips?
Answer : I'm taking a very wait-and-see attitude to Sun. They like talking too much. I'm waiting for the action.
