The LXF Guide: OpenSolaris distros

,----[ Quote ]
| OpenSolaris is the much talked-about open source version of Sun's industrial 
| strength operating system. It's a Unix derivative aimed at the same general 
| demographic as Linux or the free BSDs: system administrators, developers, and 
| desktop users. Under the guidance of Debian founder Ian Murdock, OpenSolaris 
| has taken its place alongside Linux and the free BSDs as another viable 
| alternative operating system, and has built up support for 12 languages. It 
| offers commonly used software as found in Linux such as Gnome, Evolution, 
| Pidgin and Firefox. In addition, OpenSolaris includes graphical config tools 
| such as the Device Drivers utility and Package Management suite - the latter 
| having a look and feel that's not alien to Synaptic users.

Solaris Distro Review - OpenSolaris 2008.11

,----[ Quote ]
| The free software world is in great evolution, and among the new projects and
| new versions of old projects, there is always something new that appears on
| the horizon. OpenSolaris is one of them news, even if it is not really a
| news. The Solaris operating system, from Sun Microsystems is not new, indeed,
| but the project was on its bases, and i'm honoured to write a review.
| OpenSolaris is a novelty that is part of the vast landscape of alternative
| operating systems, with many promises, great enthusiasm, and features that
| i'll illustrate in this review.
