Seems like lots of people are bitching and moaning about this.
I for one am all for this. (It seemed at times I was the only one for it at times). The fact of the matter is that most of the gnu/Linux command equivalents are, for the most part, more feature rich and easier to use. Would you rather spend your time maintaining a system, or would you rather have a feature rich system that has a large number of building blocks included out of the box? I prefer the second, and that is the Linux approach. Solaris has much room for improvement in the "out of box" usefulness category. We are talking 15000+ packages in the Ubuntu universe, all the can be installed over the network with apt-get. We have a long way to go before we catch up.
