Solaris 8 is now "open" and free.  Sun told me that it is the superior =
UNIX of all UNICES--to end all UNICES! (--to that effect)
And--
Solaris' kernel algorithm design is suppose to be better than BSD's.  I =
want to learn UNIX, but computer scientists predict Linux will gradually =
fade away, leaving BSD; but now Solaris is free--won't that "crush" BSD? =
 Won't everyone flock to Solaris?
Should I now uninstall my OpenBSD?

Please help me with guidance.

--D Viglione, very confused student who wants to have faith in BSD, =
again.

I got the impression from Sun that they have never heard of FreeBSD!  =
Does that mean FreeBSD is not good enough for large corporations?
