a user will not be able to tell you the differance IMHO.
BUT
as a sys admin i use aix 4.3.3 and atho i am more proficient in solaris. aix has grown on me and has some great features. personaly i like there disk managment over solaris as far as out of the box goes.
i mean for the most part all unixes are essentially the same minus syntax.
I dont think a user will know the differnace between the two.
