Sun has master the art of meaningless marketing. That Solaris (whatever version) is NOT Linux, hence, the phrase Solaris is better than Linux at being Linux does not even rise to the level of an oxymoron. Want some facts? Then read on.
This is an interesting and somewhat thought provoking article that examines some of the “issues” that revolve around Sun’s marketting machine. While it does highlight some interesting points, I can’t say it is really as clear cut as made out.
Sadly, Sun appear to have targetted Linux as their opposition – which has caused a natural backswell of linux devotees now slashing and burning Solaris.
Sadly, both are excellent OS and should be capable of standing on their own. They serve different functions and meet different needs.
Why dont they all just attack MS Windows like sensible people 🙂
