Will OpenSolaris and Solaris be a gonner now that Oracle bought it?

I am kind of 50/50 on it. Oracle could use all sorts of code or even offer it with service.

Pretty sure they like Virtualbox in the deal.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

OpenSolaris might lose corporate sponsorship; they will no doubt keep Solaris 10. Frankly, I'd be more worried about MySQL.

yeah i think MySQL is going to be history, but as far as solaris goes I feel Oracle will continue with it because its to give a fight to its competitor IBM. The only reason Oracle bought SUN.
