I also voted, but I think that SUN is now solving a lot of more harderproblems
like integration process, global future roadmap. Stuffs like supportfor 'home
users' and 'small enterprises' are not so important tasks atthe moment.
But we also have to know that OpenSolaris has been opened to target'home
users', so we should expect that some offers from SUN target us,at some point
in future :).

I've signed for both my laptop and desktop and put a pointer to the poll on my
blog too, lets hope the right people pay attention...

Totally agree with this...forking out 324 USD a year for each of my systems
(laptop + workstation) per year is just too much. A basic support option just
for security fixes etc at a reasonable price would fill that hole well. Call me
cynical but Sun will probably ignore this and keep on ignoring the fact that
not everyone is and "enterprise" grade user.
Maybe we just have to push them :-)
Here's a poll I've set up: http://www.doodle.com/3ev8fvdxn7yghr84
I'm targeting private, non-corporate users with this poll, who just want
security patches/bug fixes.
Personally, I'm fine paying a small fee. But hey, USD 324 is too much, I have a
family to feed :-)
Maybe Sun starts to smell the money, if we get lots of participants in this
poll who want to spend some cash... ;-)
Cheers
