No. Oracle laid off the sparc design team about 5 years ago. Pretty sure Fujitsu has EOLed sparc too.

It is a dead architecture.

LOL
Last gasps coming from the Slowaris team. Just goes to show the desperation that must exist within the old Sun ranks. Sure doesn't bode well for SPARC either. I mean, what kind of D0RK would waste their time with this? Might as well go become an expert on the internals of AIX. The author states it all up front too, "too little too late".

RIP
