Mac OS X Remember back in January when Sun engineer Adam Leventhal shared that Apple had "crippled" DTrace? Well, it appears that the latest point release of Leopard silently restored DTrace to full function. According to Levanthal, on 10.5.3, the output of DTrace is "exactly what one would expect". DTrace can be used right now on your updated Leopard install.

OS X is shaping up to be a real developers UNIX. With ZFS, full DTRACE, GNU tools, X11 it may become the leading OpenSolaris distribution, beating Project Indiana at its own game! ;)

Solaris is not DTrace or ZFS, let alone GNU or X11 (which don't have anything to do with Sun, let alone solaris)

Perhaps you should've turned your sarcasm detector on for that one.
