The Register has reviewed OpenSolaris, and concludes: "Sun has made good on its promise to deliver OpenSolaris, the company's Unix-based answer to Linux, with a company-supported, commercial update arriving in mid-May. Although far from a complete product, the latest OpenSolaris is impressive and in the long run could prove a viable alternative to Linux."

I KNOW! lets all have a big f--king teletubbie doll with a touchscreen in its belly, then we can have various hotkeys located around its body. OH! i got one more stroke of brilliance going here, maybe instead of having a reset button, we just have a G-meter in its head, and if we punch it really hard in the head, it means we want a cold reboot!
Haha, best comment I read in weeks

All I meant was that there are 40 year old flaws clogging up what otherwise works well. 40 years ago, they probably weren't flaws, they probably made a lot of sense. I just find it ridiculous that in an industry were hardware can change radically over the course of a year or two, we're still using 40 year old software.

YES! lets invent brand new shit, to replace what we currently have developed over the past 40 years, which works pretty damn good.

YES! this will be a worthy replacement of my 40 year old /sbin/reboot.
