Solaris 8 & 9 Free for x86 Once Again

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the one-more-os-to-cram-onto-your-box dept.

REBloomfield writes "The Register is reporting that after nearly two years, Solaris x86 8 & 9 is once again Free (as in beer) to download for x86 users." You can download it if you desire. Gives me college flashbacks.
