Speaking of Linux Distro Hell...
... *which* linux are you trying to be familiar with?
That's the nice thing about linux distros, you can always fine one
to use as an example to prove whatever point you are trying to make.
The key point here is "on linux, it is generally extremely easy
to find, get and use almost anything that is being developed
in the FOSS world, and on Solaris, it isn't."
We're not trying to emulate any one distro, but to enable this
"I wanted <foo>, so I went and got it and now I'm using it; wow
that was easy" customer reaction.
Lets not get lost in the weeds...
