Rep:
Yes, I should have written Oracle Solaris 11. Hipster, Tribblix and others still target desktops but the question was about Solaris 11.3, not OpenSolaris/Illumos derivatives.
I prefer my FreeBSD desktops for everyday use and neither are booted up ATM, but here's a shot of my Solaris and OpenIndiana boxen. I like the look of Gnome2 but won't be switching from Fluxbox anytime soon.
I uploaded new wallpapers to my site today, too.

Funny you should say that. I tried to install CDE, as it was listed as one of the "zap" packages available in the repos, but alas, it failed.
In the end, there were too many paper cuts to consider using Tribblix seriously, which is a shame, because it was a lot faster on my hardware than OpenIndiana.
