is enough to say that im horryfied with this news.

I might tend to agree with this sentiment but hasn't this been going on in some way for a very long time? As part of my job I test our software on multiple versions of Linux and a user's perspective the latest Solaris Community Editions are starting to feel just feel like another Linux distro. For example, the default desktop is now Gnome, it has an auto update app your grandmother could love, and /usr/sfw has just about all the tools I am used to seeing in Linux. I switch back in between OS's all day and as a user the differences aren't huge. For the development I do there are some big differences but that is a different story. As a Linux user that has converted to Solaris I could see a big chasm say back a couple of years ago but today the separation isn't that big of a deal.
