Int his episode, our valiant host NCommander digs into the depths of a PC compatibility solution to let Solaris systems run Windows software. Made by Sun Microsystems in 1998, the SunPCI used an AMD K6-2 processor to run DOS and Windows with no native performance loss.

However, in true Sun Microsystems fashion, the SunPCI manages to be an exceptionally bland experience that no doubt filled a very specific need with no possibility of growth. As a way to run Windows and Office on top of a Sun workstation, the SunPCI isn't horrid, but its definitely not good. 

On this adventure, we're going to go through and explore the SunPCI, test it with DOS and Windows applications, and then take to the next level as far as cursed computing goes.
