"The collaborative, massively distributed development process behind the
Internet and Open Source projects is not your enemy. It is your friend, the
source of basic research that you can turn into your next generation of
products."

OpenSolaris still has some Linux copying to do
,----[ Quote ]
| OpenSolaris 2008.05 packs in most of what Linux users are likely to expect -
| GNOME, easy installation, good software update tools and more - and then adds
| some extras on top. Although OpenSolaris isn't quite ready for prime time,
| when it is, it'll be a nice possible alternative to Linux.
|
| Because it ships with a number of developer-focused tools that most desktop
| users probably don't care about - the ZFS filesystem, DTrace,
| and "containers" - it may not be all that compelling for average users.
