lol, i'm actually pretty impressed with open solaris...and with DTRACE
support coming to a FreeBSD RELEASE soon i'd say it's a great time to
start hacking the OS.  my fav. is this liveCD:

http://www.genunix.org/distributions/belenix_site/belenix_home.html

i was so impressed in fact that i tried to get it installed on my
laptop's HD.  could never get to be as stable as the live CD though...
