All information I could find online suggests that running Wabi on #solaris 8 should be impossible.

The Oracle docs suggest that, there are newsgroup posts about people saying it doesn't work, or that complex workarounds are required.

But it all... just seems to work? Very odd!

A photo of an LCD screen showing a Solaris 8 CDE desktop.

On the desktop are some terminal screens showing GL information, a 3D application (ogl_install_check) and a copy of Microsoft Word 6.0 showing a wordart reading "Microsoft Office 4.3 on Solaris 8" but in a cute round design.
