I decided to read Oracles System News. There's a pretty good article
that actually gives me a warm feeling about Opensolaris.
The article is titled:
Oracle's Hardware and Systems Support Policies
Linked at:

Specifically:
Article #22995
Volume 146, Issue 1
Section: Hardware
For the link to work I believe you'll have to log in, at least I did.
It makes me think there is something very big that is going to happen
with Opensolaris, not bad, but good. It's just my speculation.
Linked to the article is a blog from Alex Gorbachev located at:

In the bottom comments section stated was (from Alex Gorbachev):
"I wouldn't underestimate Linux but I argue that Oracle's true strategy
on Solaris vs Linux are not known in public domain. I'm sure they
wouldn't mind dominate OS market with the product that they control (and
that's not Linux) --- whether it's feasible or not is another question".
This is the quote that makes me think that something good is going the
happen. I believe (speculate) that Oracle will try to sell Opensolaris
as a desktop OS. Where else can you move it, if not backwards.
Well any way, I just wanted to state something positve about Opensolaris.
