Going slightly off-topic.....

I didn't realise we had any Solaris buffs here. Or am I just mis-reading.

It's one OS I always have time for. I know some folks consider it to be 
'limited' in terms of a desktop OS, but its the only one I can honestly say 
I have never seen crash; and what it does do, it does it simply and without 
any fuss.

Also, we have Solaris servers at work, that run 24/7. Best thing about them 
is that we never have to spend any time on maintenance or fault-fixing or 
bug-bashing. In the time they have been installed (since about 1998), I 
could count on one hand the number of times they have had to be re-started; 
and only then for application software upgrades. For mission-critical 
systems, I wouldn't look at anything else.

Steve.
