Hi James,
Thanks for posting these two procedures/articles. You are very thorough, and I
bet it took a lot of time to put these together.
One general comment I have is that 72 steps is very long for a procedure. Could
you possibly break each procedure into multiple, shorter procedures? One idea
would be to break them up based on how you grouped the tasks. Here are the
tasks you include in your list at the beginning of each procedure:
* How to setup a virtual machine guest
* How to install OpenSolaris as a guest
* How to update OpenSolaris
* How to install OpenOffice.org on OpenSolaris
* How to find further information about using OpenSolaris
Also, if you're interested in some nitty-gritty tips on writing procedures,
check out the Editorial Cheat Sheet for OpenSolaris Documentation
(specifically, the section "Procedure Writing Tips"):

Cheers,
