"There's a problem with Solaris and Sun knows it. The installation experience of Solaris (along with other areas) could be greatly improved. The installer doesn't 'suck' as it's easy and known to Solaris administrators, but for a Linux or Windows user it could prove to be a bit challenging. For those of you that have never tried out Solaris, what we've decided to do is to show you this 'usability gap' with the installation process in Solaris compared to Linux. Is the experience really that bad?"

Yes! For example, Dave Miner is one of the leaders and has been the public face for this new installation project for long time.
If you have followed the mailing lists, a lot of hard work are under way for months or even years now in order to improve the usability.
Project Indiana, if done right, will hopefully give those projects more priority and in the end leverage those work.
