Hmmm... I like the sound of that...
Please don't misunderstand me -- this was in context of Linux.
If one really wants to start raking in some serious cash, the big bucks are

discussion regarding a I'm new here, trying to understand .. topic..
In any case, I read a post about how the OS are merely nv_b50, nv_b51 and so
on.. that clears up stuff even more.. just newer builds.
Besides, I am
No no no no no no no no.
and once more for good measure: no.
If you maintain this sort of mentality, then
OpenSolaris will never be a
separate entity. This is exactly the sort of thought
we need to get
away from.
Why? The source code is free to the public. Should Sun go buh-bye
Don't make it more complicated than it already is,
There we go. This would be one of those I told you so moments.
It's complicated. Way overcomplicated.

But there *is* a distinction. Solaris !=
OpenSolaris, and vice versa.
OK Rich, if Sun's Solaris is based on OpenSolaris, meaning it is Sun's
distribution of OpenSolaris, what is the distinction?

Untrue. Solaris is still cool.
It's just that Open Solaris is *NOT* the same thing as Sun's Solaris,

Very simply, Sun takes what is in OpenSolaris, removes some stuff
and adds some other stuff. The result is the Solaris we all

As far as I am concerned, current Solaris is another distribution of

Hi,
I don't play in OpenSolaris. I'm not a developer any more. I work for
