Not really. The BSDs -which have had more time to diverge- tend to be a lot

But the case isn't the same, is it?
Here's something to consider: do any of the (Open)Solaris distros out there
break compatibility with eachother? I'm curious.

XFS! In absence of ZFS, the best 'classic' filesystem out there, bar none, no
ifs, buts, or maybes.

You definitely have me there. :) But these differences are still just the
nature of the open beast.
The distros vary because the code licenses say they can, and because there is

That is one of the reasons I dont like Linux, the distros are different. If you
know SuSE then you dont necessarily know Ubuntu. There is no reference Linux.
With Solaris, it is different. If you know Solaris, then you dont have to
relearn in the same vein.

I'm currently using Ubuntu Linux as a server to host a [b]Seaside/Squeak[/b]
web application. This application makes heavy use of streaming video. I'm using
[b]Darwin Streaming Server[/b]. Of course, I'm also using [b]Apache2[/b].
My Seaside/Squeak application uses [b]PostgreSQL[/b], too.
