A note on the PC hardware front:

How do you feel about the fact that Solaris is essentially EOL now? I'm sure it will be reasonable to run for another year or two, but where will you go after that?

Don't make me cry in my coffee :(

Personally, I'll either run with it for as long as I can and deal with it, and hope that Oracle at least releases the last ZFS so it can be incorporated somewhere, or go back to FreeBSD which I used to run before Solaris X86 was available to me as Solaris 7, and use the earlier version of ZFS.

Professionally, there's only Linux now - I'll use Oracle Linux for servers with Oracle products on them, but even then, I'm not liking the NUMA support.
