Who's rocking with OpenSolaris?
Me! 
After attempting it some months ago and giving up in disgust, I returned to my old dual p3 and hammered away until I found myself presented with JDS on an OpenSol installation. Very nice, I must say. |

Can you clarify what do you mean by "rocking with OpenSolaris" ?
OpenSolaris being source code only, while SolarisExpress is a distribution based on OpenSolaris, I don't know where to cast my vote, as I use Solaris 9, Solaris 10, SolarisExpress (various builds) and occasionnaly Schillix (a 'pure' OpenSolaris distro) ...
You should probably add "both" as an answer in your poll |

Well, I installed Solaris Express b22, then bfu'd the OpenSolaris binaries over the top of it. So I guess that's what I meant. |

So you are using both Solaris Express and OpenSolaris ...
