I'm sorry, at the moment Sun just doesn't have the software tools I need. (I work for a big corp. )
I have made a vow that when VMWare workstation comes out for Solaris, I will start running a Solaris desktop. (I have held of switching to a Linux desktop in the hopes that Sun will come through with a vmware port) With Mac and Windows I can run Solaris in a VM. (which I do). I also use Cygwin.

Why Solaris? Somebody with that kind of mentality can be perfectly happy on Windows. If you don't care about how it all works, you don't need the most advanced operating system on the planet. Windows will do. How could you promote the idea that Windows will do? Windows only suffices because of the fact that there is so much desktop software written only for it. Of course, it would not be a problem if Windows is not the resource abusing pest that it is. Why not Solaris as a replacement for Windows? Drivers for Solaris go a long way unlike Linux and even Windows. Solaris has a better potential than Linux for this reason to replace that malware infested platform called Windows. Why relegate Solaris to a niche?
