The part of Sun's money that got Solaris to be well supported was in
the paychecks of people like myself, Stuart, and Deron who were paid to
participate in and contribute to the open source community.   Some of
that goes to ensuring things work on Solaris and with Sun compilers,
and other to general projects that help regardless of OS (like my work
on the 7.x modularization, and Stuart's time organizing the X.Org
Developer's Conference).

Sun's donations of cash and hardware to the X.Org Foundation have been
far less productive than the donations of time and effort.
