Compared to Linux and FreeBSD? Not a chance, Solaris was running circles around them in the 1990s when Linux was still a toy operating system and FreeBSD was figuring out their infrastructure.

These days, FreeBSD has adopted nearly all of the cool technical advantages Solaris has, and Linux seems to be actively hostile to adopting such things (ZFS, DTrace, ACLs...).

Thirty years have passed. I was born in the 1990s and I’m old enough to have a house on my name and probably kids in the very near future.

Response was to that comment :

Meaning it was not late but early.

>Thirty years have passed.

And yet you still use unix based systems....
