Solaris Web Installer!

To prevent myself from committing any jetlag-modified code I decided to start the week off by installing Solaris on a Sun Ultra 1/170e we have here in the office.

I started the installation and to my surprise, the Solaris 8 Web Installer brought up a web browser in the background, while the OS install occured in a foreground dialog. What a cool idea, this lets the person installing the software browse the web while the operating system is being installed :)
