    Yes gery it does...I myself just started playing with it, I've got Sun's
    JDK running in it, pretty spiffy stuff. Also gery...from what I read it
    has SCO and SysV Binary Compatibility, I think even (not sure) Sun and
    Irix support too.

    Here's the FreeBSD handbook section on Linux Binary Compatibility:

    Oh yea, welcome to the club.....
