Seriously, where do you people dig up this crap?
ZFS doesn't count until it's released? Why is there a topic about a Linux kernel that hasn't been released..
Solaris not working on HP or IBM "high-end" servers? Please, the HP ML series is "Sun tested/certified" and DL series is getting there. Fancy RAID cards? Well, the ML series include SmartArrays 641s.. those are supported. As for IBMs - don't know.
Eh, I have Solaris 10 Express (NV build) currently running on my Acer Ferrari. Works great, the onboard NIC is supported, and the next few (if not the next) will have hotplug USB and much better laptop ACPI support.
With regards to hardware support, that'll soon change. I've been talking to a few OpenSolaris developers and they are *praying* that people will submit drivers for hardware. The oppurtunity is there, people just have to take it.
