is it default or de facto? is it robust with lots of well-tested packages? is it easy-to-use?
I think most ppl under-estimate the value of packag managment. I think that's the reasonwhy Linux is more popular on the desktopthan *BSD. And the desktop BSDs don't cut it since they seem to be focussing on the desktop itself whereas you need a solution to scale UP and _DOWN_.
That said if I could get most of my applications tested and easily installable on Solars I'd love to try it.
