To say that Solaris 10 has been successful would be an understatement. The award-winning technical features, the support for a large number of hardware platforms and the process of becoming Open Source via the OpenSolaris project have all contributed to that success. The large number of Solaris 10 downloads (11m+) and OEM agreements with IBM and Dell further validate that success. It is clear that Solaris is and will remain a major operating system for the foreseeable future.
