You can't be serious! Solaris is buggy and **SLOW**. Personally, I'd
pick none of the above (although I actually had pretty good results with
AIX for the PS/2). My first choice would be one of the BSD derivatives:
BSDI if you need a commercial product that is rock solid, well supported,
and ultra-fast. FreeBSD if you can live with a "free" product.
