Actually Sun publishes this book and Sun's company logo prominently displays on the book cover. Sun's people had every right to dictate what should be included in this book. However, hindsight is always 20/20. Two (or may be three) years ago, who in any reasonable mind could have anticipated that Solaris would work so powerfully on X86/64 machines? Now even IBM has to roll into the Solaris camp. It is easy (for me) to criticize that someone might have screwed up, but the truth is, things are happening beyond anyone's wildest contemplation. This omission interestingly enough serves a very powerful testimony. BTW I installed nv_70 last night. It did have a major problem--I was not able to preserve the installed slices. Perhaps someone can tell me what I did wrong. But at least I am able to rid of the crazy gnome cursor behavior of nv_69.
