Hey Dennis,

I never tried win4solaris, but I believe it is based exactly on qemu.
So don't expect to run WinNT 5.x with it at any speed remotely 
comparable to what you would get in VMware (which unfortunately still 
lacks Solaris host support).
You may contact them to get a demo/trial version, according to 
http://www.win4solaris.com/jml/templates/mp_rickr/home/download.html

SPARC hosts are unsupported, in contrast to plain qemu.
So why spending money for it? One really needed to benchmark the demo 
version.
