Re: MacGroup: Adobe dropping FrameMaker for Mac

[Henri Yandell <bayard@generationjava.com>]

Very unlikely, unless they provided the source, and even then it'd take
finking.

Solaris tends to be quite platform specific I think, and I don't think a
SPARC chip is anywhere near close enough a match for a PowerPC chip for
binary compatibility to be fun. I've also never heard of any kind of
emulation for Sun stuff, be it OS X or Linux.

Only hope for FrameMaker on a Mac is to get PC emulaton software I'd
warrant.
