I've just built a new amd64 system for my desktop workstation, and am now running OpenSolaris 2008.11. A week in, I'm really liking it. Have hit a few stumbling blocks relating to issues with gnu tools on Solaris, but am looking forward to getting stuck into things like Zones, Trusted Extensions and RBAC (
amongst others). I particularly like the ideas proposed in Glen Faden's "
Safe Browsing" article.
