The Register has reviewed OpenSolaris, and concludes: "Sun has made good on its promise to deliver OpenSolaris, the company's Unix-based answer to Linux, with a company-supported, commercial update arriving in mid-May. Although far from a complete product, the latest OpenSolaris is impressive and in the long run could prove a viable alternative to Linux."

I personally would go with BSD at the moment. The hardware support is a lot better. I ran opensolaris on several systems and it didn't have drivers for my network card and sound cards. I didn't have this problem with FreeBSD 6.3 and 7.0.
