Ok but in terms of admining the upkeep of a developer server obviouslly 
debian linux and freebsd are far superior in terms of keeping the server 
source and packages up to date, solaris, especially the patches is a 
nightmare, however i see they have a update manager in 10 now, so far 
behind the times.

Im not a solaris admin so prefer to ignore that part altogether. It 
still doesnt answer my question what this page means then i dont even 
see a jdk1.5 package available, so what does it mean :)

Im currently downloading solaris10 atm, however it was my last resort 
even though it may look like i have to go down that path lol.

thanks.
