sun

Last week, I wrote about us discarding Solaris for a new project. Most large companies will not care and not listen to their customers.
Many of us have dealt with Verizon, Time Warner, Creative Labs, etc and know what I mean. After all, when you have so many customers, it is cheaper to lose a bunch of them and provide overall bad service than it is to fix real problems. After my short experience with Sun, I assumed it was the same:I WAS WRONG. They do listen!

We are thinking about getting another server for new projects in the works. Currently we are using CentOS and it works great, so in all logic the next server will also use the same OS.
Being curious and a bit geeky, I am still looking at options. I used Solaris a long time ago and I came across posts about how Solaris is now open source, etc and I thought I’d have a look at it.
