Sun Solaris, OpenSolaris How does OpenSolaris, Sun's effort to free its big-iron OS, fare from a Linux user's point of view? Is it merely a passable curiosity right now, or is it truly worth installing? Linux Format takes OpenSolaris for a test drive, examining the similarities and differences to a typical Linux distro.

OpenSolaris sucks compared to SXCE. The only thing I liked about OpenSolaris was IPS, otherwise SXCE is much better.

OpenSolaris is SXCE minus CDE and a few encumbered bits. And the obviously different installer and ZFS root.
