If this machine needs to be:

A) Secure
B) Mission-Critical
C) Connected to the Internet
D) Stable-as-a-Rock

I personally would feel more comfortable with Solaris, is all I'm saying.

I am NOT saying Linux can't handle this, but if you have the budget to
throw at it, what advantages does Linux have?

Another point is that I trust Sun hardware a lot more than I trust
any i386. Including the bigass Compaq/Dell/whatever.
