Subject: [suse-sparc] SuSE + Sun Blade 100 ? does it work ?

    Hi guys... I want to buy a Sun Blade 100 Work Station, but I want to use it
    with SuSE (I have been using SuSE on Intel since 6.x so I want to use it
    also on that Sparc System).
    I try to found more information about SuSE+Sparc or SuSE+Sun Blade 100 at
    the SuSE Web Site but I was unable to get detail information about it, like
    if is there a more recent version of SuSE rather than 7.1 to be used on the
    Sparc Architecture... or if the Sun Blade works with the SuSE Version of
    Linux for Sparc...
    Also I don't found the Sparc version of SuSE at the SuSE Store... why ?
    Does the SuSE Version for Sparc dies on it's first release ? I mean it was
    "born already dead" ? or SuSE Plans to follow that Architecture --in a
    realistic form-- in the short term ?
    Thanks.

    bye
