No, you're not wrong. It's just that if you get a copy of OpenSolaris x86, it will be out of date. It will still work of course. It may well be that someone on this forum can provide a copy.

OI is a running project with a current release.

And of course, you are correct, you cannot install SPARC code on a x86 system.
