dont know if it can replace my linux box...

i have always been a really big fan of solaris, it makes a great server and development platform. Both which are my primary uses for my linux box. but it's missing a major killer app: vmware. i need to run windows on my development box to do testing of internet apps on that other browser, but without a rock solid fast program like vmware to use i dont think i'll make the switch. my file server may move to it, but this really kills my development box.
