"the Solaris kernel is far superior to the Linux kernel (notice I am
ONLY talking kernel)"

Look the SunOS kernel for Solaris is very good, but why do you
claim it is "far superior" to the Linux kernel?

SunOS kernel has good support for SMP, large multiprocessor
systems, RBAC and DTrace is very nice. Linux would counter
with wider architecture support, better (wider?) of peripherals
and device, MAC, and god SMP and multiprocessor support.

Both work extremely well in the key areas of availability and
reliability. I'm interest in why you believe SunOS is "far superior"?

Well, with Linus being a tuuurd right now, Sun might gain some mindshare  DonnieBoy | 01/30/06
Nice one  Richard Flude | 01/30/06
Yes, Sun is only thinking about using GPL3, WHEN is is final. And, there  DonnieBoy | 01/30/06

Yes, one of the pitfalls of Solaris is hardware support!  DonnieBoy | 01/30/06
I agree  Richard Flude | 01/30/06
No one wnats the GPL3...  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/30/06
