I worked at Sun for a while and one thing I recall was how we could grab any abandoned hardware laying around and take it for whatever you wanted. I recall wheeling an archaic 4ft tall tower format disk enclosure I found in a server room corner to my desk and connecting it to either the x86 dual CPU desktop I used (which had since lost all its side panels before I inherited it) or an ultra 30 I had there, I forget which. I then set up the internal s10 build with ZFS and playing around with it. That's when I first become confident in the benefits of Solaris over anything else out there at the time. Used Solaris 10 as my main desktop for nearly 4 years We even had intel itanium desktops for testing. Always referred to as the "itanics".
