I am thinking about putting the following system together to run OpenSolaris. Before I spend the money, can anybody see an obvious flaw that would prevent OpenSolaris from booting up and running? My internet connection will be through Comcast cable via a LinkSys cable modem and router (wired; not wireless). I plan on hooking up my mouse, keyboard, and display from my current WindowsXp system.
BTW, looks like my ballpark price will be around $1,900 (USA). --Thanks, MikeJr1 [Hardware_Type Manufacturer Model Price Website] CPU Intel Core™2 Duo Processor E6750 $316 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000GGU09O/ref=nosim/6684177-20 Memory Kingston 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory $71.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820134488&ATT=20-134-488&CMP=OTC-C173T&cm_mmc=OTC-C173T-_-Memory+(Desktop+Memory)-_-Kingston+Technology-_-20134488 Motherboard MSI Computer Corp.
