Gordon,

Solaris has traditionally been a server operating system.  Sure, Sun made forays into desktops time and time again, and they even made a short-lived notebook, but their bread and butter has always been servers.  Which makes me wonder and ask, how well does it run on a notebook compared to other Unixly offerings (Linux, FreeBSD)?
