Solaris will never replace linux. Solaris and linux should not even be compared. Sun is a hardware co., they want to sell more hardware. That is why they are giving away their little solaris build. Solaris sux on intel based systems, always has, always will. Not to mention the lack of support/drivers available for any hardware build that isn't from Sun. Linux on the other hand is at home on the most dominent computer builds in the world and getting better.
