Not really. The BSDs -which have had more time to diverge- tend to be a lot more

While that is true, it is an inaccurate way of
looking at the problem. While the desktop interface
of any given distro could look and act like anything,
reality is much more simple. In reality, what the

the place; files are named differently; file system hierarchy can look
completely different from one distro to the next. Core
the fact that to work around the differences from IRIX and Linux
has turned the XFS code into such a monster that quite a few Linux
kernel developers have publicly proclaimed that they want nothing to
do with XFS code.

Works perfectly on IRIX. Gee, I wonder why?
If the case is the same for OpenSolaris
code, the same could occur for OpenSolaris distros...
But the case isn't the same, is it?
Here's something to consider: do any of the (Open)Solaris distros out there
break compatibility with eachother? I'm curious.

That is one of the reasons I dont like Linux, the distros are different. If you
know SuSE then you dont necessarily know Ubuntu. There is no reference Linux.
With Solaris, it is different. If you know Solaris, then you dont have to
relearn in the same vein.

Changing to another OS, even to another form of Linux, is going to
involve relearning a bunch of stuff, and if you're nervous about it or
short of time, you'd probably going to start off with

Postgres is supported on Solaris.
1) Does Solaris have a software repository and package management system
comparable to Ubuntu's apt-get in terms of ease-of-use, up-to-date packages,
and extensiveness of repository
