different for administering the system?

There's an 'immigrants' project at opensolaris.org that is supposed to

If you're coming from Linux one really good tip is  to run 'catman -w'
and use the man pages.
Linux manpages are often outdated or missing, the Solaris ones are really good.
docs.sun.com is a bit like the linux howto project, except its
maintained and accurate :)

Hmm, I was just checking out solaris cuz sun says its the most secure os. But 
my real question is why people are leaving linux for a foreign environment like 
solaris. It seems that there is somewhat less software available for solaris. 
(I don't mind paying for software if it's what I'm looking for, so there might 
be commercial apps for solaris that I haven't come across).

There's less software for everything that isn't linux, but most of the
quality software
I use has been available on Solaris too (and BSD and OSX).
