OpenSolaris vs Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Because OpenSolaris is advertised as a desktop distribution, it's fair 
| to compare it with current Linux distributions. However, the first 
| thing you notice is that the operating system is much slower than 
| Ubuntu on the same hardware, so don't think about installing it on 
| older hardware. For the rest it looks like a fairly standard Gnome 
| desktop, although NetworkManager is replaced by an application called 
| Network Auto Magic, which does more or less the same thing but has 
| fewer features.

| I think OpenSolaris is interesting to keep an eye on. They are working on
| some pretty interesting projects, however I think they still need to work on
| some quirks, before being a good option for students as they would like to
| associated with. Linux is still far ahead, with the countless amount of
| drivers, and friendliness.
