I agree, it's a breeze to install too.

Unfortunatley, my ethernet card is unsupported.

I would have to go with FreeBSD.

That is also a totally biased, and I do reccomend trying them all.

I don't know if this is still the case, but Solaris has notoriously had much better performance on Sun hardware than on X86.

Big surprise, when you consider who Solaris is developed by.
