64-bit Solaris for Opteron coming

Sun Microsystems is attacking the low end x86-based server market with force, as it has announcements around both AMD's Opteron processor and Intel's Xeon processor on the way, executives said today.

Scott McNealy, Sun's CEO, Chairman and President, said in an interview that the company has already started work on a 64-bit version of Solaris for AMD's Operton chip. This move shows far more support for AMD's new chip than Sun first indicated with an announcement this week for only a 32-bit version of OS on Opteron.

"We're doing that," McNealy said. "The investment is happening. It's not hard to get 64-bit since Solaris is a 64-bit OS. That was probably understated at the launch. We just wanted to make sure we were out of the block with what we had ready."

Sun Microsystems Chairman and CEO Scott McNealy Wednesday told about 600 partners here that Sun is aggressively implementing a "state-of-the-art" x86 system strategy with pricing below that of rival Dell Computer.

"We are going to give you a great, state-of-the-art, priced below Dell x86 strategy," said McNealy, speaking at the iForce Partner Summit. " Why? Because we can. We get it from the same manufacturer, the same Asian assembler, through the same Intel."
