Thank's to

"Herb Goodfellow, Jr." <hgoodfel@osf1.gmu.edu>
"Marco Greene" <mgreene@sympatico.ca>
Dave Wreski <dave@nic.com>

The answer is that Sun Rep are using Toshiba laptop !!! So even if Sun
is not supporting LapTop officially, a lot of people are running Solaris
x86 on a laptop!
The IBM laptops are also a good bet. (NASA people are running Solaris
x86 on IBM ThinkPad in space !)

Any good or bad story about Solaris 7 x86 on toshibas ?

Simon.
