You bring up some true and valid points, however, I'd like to remind you that Solaris was never advertized as the most advanced desktop OS. And if we take into consideration that the desktop is dying a slow yet sure death, the long term usability of Solaris as being installed on a PC-bucket "fat client" as a desktop OS loses significance. In ten years most of us will most likely be running thin clients powered by some sort of "set top box" home server, and desktop will be as relevant as last year's snow.
