I don't think the ship date is known outside of Sun yet (and maybe not
even inside). As for what build of Nevada it'll be based on, I hear
that Solaris 11 will NOT be based on Nevada but on Project Indiana,
Sun's binary distro of the OpenSolaris bits--a prospect that doesn't
exactly thrill me...

To be fair, I've not yet tried OpenSolinux^WOpenSolaris, so I shouldn't
be too hard on it.

Unless something happens in the next few weeks, it will not be based on
NV. It will be based(or even be) OpenSolaris.

As a desktop/laptop system it is fine, I fail to see how it fits into
the Enterprise as it has no hands free enterprise hands off installer
(AI just is not there yet, and they have ripped out JumpStart).
