Under those circumstances it is a bit pointless to give customers a choice, and they won't like it. Either turn Solaris into something that will do what Linux does and more, or simply use Linux wholeheartedly and port what is required from Solaris. There really isn't any point.
Solaris already does what linux does and more on a T2000/T1000. Customers want choice. Why they want it or if their choice is the right one is not for anyone but them to decide. Sun at the very least must provide that choice, which leads to more hardware sales ( also service) than if they did not offer the choice.
As usual you have no real point to make other than troll Sun related topics.
