Oracle Solaris (or any other commercial UNIX) for home use?
A couple of questions to those who know. Does it make sense to use Oracle Solaris as a home OS? As I guess, this doesn't contradicts the licence and it's available for free download at Oracle's website. But what about updates, full-scale use of ZFS, installing 3d party software etc, can this be done without buying a licence? And how good is it in general terms compared to Linux and *BSD?
The same question goes about possibly any other commercial UNIX systems in case they allow free distribution. |
