Solaris 2.0 was the first SVr4 version of Solaris. 4.1.{1,2,3} were
still BSD based, and Solaris 2.0 was SunOS 5.0 and OpenWindows.

My favorite version number was SunOS 4.1.4U1: I was told that the ``U1'' meant, "you won", as in "you won. Here's another BSD-based release." Whether that's true or not, I have no idea.

I recently came across a CD ROM that was labeled Solaris 2.0 Preview
and Solbourne's name written in Magic Marker on it. I have no clue how
I came to have it, but it was mixed in my ancient CDROM disc
collection...

Wow. Solbourne; that's a name I haven't heard in a while.
