Dear R,
People can get answers to their questions by obeying the rules, or at least by reading them
Comparing Red Hat to Solaris is not the right way to pose a question in these forums. Some people love Red Hat. Some people love Solaris.
We are not here to support these types of discussions. I closed the thread, not only because of this rule violation, but the fact that the poster seeming did not care to read the rules in the first place.
Red Hat vs. Solaris.... really has very little merit to begin a thread.... the rest of the post was good material.
As far as "how to get this information'... the world is a lot bigger than UNIX.COM - the poster has lots of options.... including Slashdot - who thrives on conflict and ****.
