    Basically its a DVD (or multiple DVDs) with Suns Solaris Operating System (10) basically a type of unix and some development tools (will work on Solaris only I believe). All this software is available to download free as well from their site.

    This would only be of interest to developers and highly IT literate people.

    yes thats correct. x86 is the normal processors we use for our PCs, Sun also sells SPARC based processor machines hence a copy for them.
