You will find that many companies would rather trust vendor rolled
binaries such as those from RedHat or Sun for their systems. Blastwave
being a community project maybe met with hesitation in the corporate
environment. I have nothing against blastwave.org and would certainly use
their packages as I believe that are of decent quality.

Linux is just a better desktop platform choice these days. For example,
if a new version of KDE comes out on Linux I can just get the binaries.
On Solaris I get to compile it myself.
Binaries for Solaris are distributed from a number of different places.
Security-conscious sites (if there are any left!) will build from source
anyway, but the notion that Solaris binaries are somehow unavailable is bunk.
They're just not found in the same places as the Linux binaries.
