we looked, but rejected Solaris primarily because we thought the availability of source and rapid interaction on the net was extremely important. Solaris continues to have performance problems on the PC compared with Linux, we have heard this from any number of people. I just talked yesterday to an office that had bought Solaris to put on a Pentium based machine and they just could not get it to install, and finally junked it and replaced it with Linux -- no problem. So all around, we have only heard extra information that makes our choice seem reasonable, and nothing to the contrary (incidentally the high price of Solaris was another definite detriment for out use).
