I agree they are doingsomething good. I am very excited about it. But whether Sun should have created a different userland, is a contentious question, one that you can easily argue both sides. I believe that, for the tasks of a Solaris admin, the Solaris OE is very well suited. The GUI is now Gnome by default and Sun is contributing to it a lot, since a couple of years. So, the GUI is usable and in line with the times.
