Hi Vince,

Here's the next thing... how do you want to distinguish between Solaris
SPARC, Solaris INTEL (and maybe even Solaris MAC even though it isn't
sold any longer)?  Each of these has a 32 and 64 bit mode also.

I thought that might be what "Platform" could be used for, but
"Architecture" sounds right.

Regards and best wishes,
