Yeah but in what way?

I can only guess that you're basing it on ease of use, which I don't think is a bad thing at all.

I've used a fair few distros and BSD, but came back to Ubuntu.

I meant in business and enterprise applications. Ease of use normally doesn't dictate how 'good' a version of linux is, just the GUI.

I am most familiar with Solaris, it is what is used where I work...

well it does make a difference you know. And on top of that, Solaris and BSD are two different sets of operating systems as well.
