The vast majority of operating system reviews are the result of a user spending a few days or weeks using a particular operating system and writing about their observations. This review is the result of my continued use of Solaris 10 (previously Solaris Express) from August 2003 to February 2005.

almost all distros render fonts exactly the same way: via freetype2 (usually the non-patent-encumbered build, with bytecode intepreter disabled) and fontconfig. Most use the same default font, too - the Bitstream Vera family (or one of the derivatives with extra characters, like Deja Vu). I don't see any difference between the rendering on Mandrakelinux, Fedora, SuSE, Ubuntu, Gentoo and Linspire in the screenshots I've seen.
