 Yes it would be nice for OpenGL to work out of the box.  With
respect to live-cd versions open solaris it helps pretest 
the hardware without installing.   

 Now the only thing is Java.  The LG demo disk is distributed
by Sun so I guess they got permission from themself to
redistribute the needed java.  If Sun where to create a 
OpenSolaris live-cd with java than Solaris could be used
as a reference platform for java technologies.
