Be carefull, a desktop and even a notebook environment are of utmost importance if illumos wants to survive in the long term. People using LINUX or Windows on their everyday machine (often the laptop) will prefer having the same environment on their servers.
I wouldn't necessarily agree. I actually run linux on my own desktop/notebook, but still want to/plan to deploy an illumos based OS where it provides the best feature set, typically for storage, and depending on your needs for virtualization. And with vmware/virtualbox/kvm, it's fairly trivial to bring up a virtual illumos to work with whether you use windows or linux on your client hardware.
