Does It All
In 2001, Sun Microsystems led the Unix market in total revenue and

Corp. shipped, according to Gartner research. Of course, all those
Sun systems shipped with the Solaris operating system. Now, Sun is
ready to bolster its OS presence with the release of Solaris 9, the

deploying network services while facilitating the development and
deployment of Web services.
