any previous version I’ve used. Yes it’s still a work station / server os, but with gnome, It’s usability has gone up ten fold.

installation of x86

Downloaded the ISOs from sun.com, making cygwin and wget do all the heavy lifting. Burned CD1, installed on a relatively up to date computer, and the installer just worked. Very impressed, I had expected a lot of fiddling would be required for my no-brand box.
Got up to a console login. But have run out of disk space to put useful things on to make it into a useable workstation.
