David,

it isn't very helpful fideling around with different pieces of hardware.

It is much easier to use a standardized pool of hardware. That can be a
X86 product line!

Solaris 10 has a lot of linux-killer features like containers, zones,
DTrace, a faster tcp/ip-stack ... but I haven't seen a feature that
allows you to communicate better with windows.=20

The mega mega mega killer feature for a better support of windows apps
on Solaris 10 is still in development. It is a .NET Framework runtime
for Solaris.

Regards,
Andreas
