Yes, JAVA always slowed down everything, including Slowaris

If you would like to check KDE @ Solaris, then check this one: http://solaris.kde.org

But I havent tried that, dunno if it works and so, but BeleniX OpenSolaris distribution offers KDE desktop, maybe that would be better to start playing with.

I like both FreeBSD and OpenSolaris and I am aware of both strong and weak points, I only regret that such great work of so many great developers cannot be merged into something that is a medley of these two and create best possible UNIX currently avialable, but I must be dreamer to think that way unfortunelly ...

Thanks for kind words Heather, I appreciate it.

I also miss that in OpenSolaris sometimes, but I will be working on it, disabling unneded SMF services and so, maybe I will find something similar to FreeBSD base system minimal instalation or something close to that.

Linux is not UNIX! Face it! It is not an insult. It is fact: GNU is a recursive acronym for “GNU's Not UNIX”.
