Simply login with CDE instead of JDS and you will find the Solaris Admin tools you need. Somehow a link to the Admin tools was not incorporated into the JDS.
There are a few problem points with the implementation as a desktop OS [all easily correctable] but the kernel really is top notch!
I think it would be great to have a Solaris "distro" incorporating the typical linux distro userland software and customizations. This would grealty enhance the desktop usability of the great kernel
Depending upon the output of OpenSolaris, I think a version of Ubuntu based on the Solaris kernel would be outstanding!
Try the "hoary" release of Ubuntu! It's a great improvement over "warty" even though it is not yet officially released. I've been running the hoary codebase for a few months and it's certainly stable enough, IMHO, for general desktop use.

Why should they not have access to convenient updates like the rest of the people who purchased MS Office? This is because nobody is entitled to software updates after purchasing the software. When purchasing the software, you are basically purchasing it as-is without any requirement to be given updates, then, or ever. This is just another good reason illustrating why when purchasing software you should really examine the product in its current state and realize the potential that no patches would ever be forthcoming.
Learn more about the benchmarks and WHY FreeBSD is slightly slower NOW. This time next year you will likely fully understand FreeBSD's decisions when they are again the benchmark leader on a 'typical' hardware configuration. The future is all about multi-processors and multi-core processors. Guess what? FreeBSD 5.x is ready.
"Not to get into a clock-waving contest (excuse my pun), I'm running a Prescott 2.4GHz chip on a microATX board inside a gutted Mac Classic with one 8mm fan in the side, one 12mm fan out the back, and it runs at an average 96F. Just my two cents."
VERY IMPRESSIVE. Hell, I don't even know where I can find an 8mm or 12mm fan, let alone ones that would actually cool anything.
By reading TFA, here and local news, the account owner let his computer be fully controlled by the theives. The transfer was conducted with the Owner's account codes etc. that the Bank uses for security. However, it's as if the account Owner gave his car keys away and blamed the Auto Manufacturer for his car being stolen.
Basically the latter. FDIC provides insurane up to $1ooM on DEPOSITS! Not authorized debits. And YES, this was an AUTHORIZED transfer from the Bank's standpoint. This guy is at fault for not taking adequate protections to secure his own account.
" So, has the Mini led to an uptake in the sales of Apple hardware, as one might expect? Any data on this, anyone?
Personally I'd really like to know if there has been a surge in the sales of the/other/ Macs... I decided to skip the gateway drug^H^H^H^HMac and go straight for the bigger iron, and I bet I'm not alone"
Absolutely not.
I'm not going to be a Mac Mini adopter now and then feel like I need to shell out $120 to upgrade to Tiger [that should be out soon]. I've got my eye on either a dual 2.5 PowerMac or G6/whatever might come along with Tiger's introduction in the upcoming months/weeks.

Perhaps for a more secure kernel, a faster kernel, a more "advanced" kernel, ZFS (soon), dtrace, zones, etc...
Admittedly the current desktop implementation is lagging from some Linux distos, but this is arguably easier to "fix" than rewrite a kernel.

Am I the only one that avoids VIA chipset products like the plague?
And THAT thing is just LOADED with VIA chips!!
Worlds fastest ITX crash!!
But you can't load your Knoppix CD with MP3s to listen to while you undergo the recovery!
We now need a "performance shootout" comparison of Solaris zones, FreeBSD jails, and Zen on Linux (or other Unix systems).
Who's going to be the first to undertake this task?

That was NOT Intels new "mini" computer, only the new heatsink required for the next generation of Intel processors.
Does this mean my tinfoil hat will receive signals wirelessly?

So much for installing XP where phones don't work or aren't readily available!
...when purchasing a productivity application, where does it state that you will be allowed future updates of any kind?
From my understanding, you purchase that product as-is, with no guarantee to future updates of any sort.
...but can they plan and execute their next getaway route with it?

1) Install Windows
2) After 1), you won't have a chance for more....

"This sounds like HT on steroids. Speaking of which, is the HT technology run from the core? If so you can now have 1 processor acting as 4."
Too bad Intel already used the 'Quad Pumped' moniker for their FSB!

Yikes, a HURD based on Longhorn?
