D'ya mean the Windoze Task Manager?

Wouldn't it be easier to use Ctrl + Alt + Delete (pressed together) to
open it?

Not sure what the smiley means, so I'll answer the question straight...

It's the same price as Linux & FreeBSD; zilch. Like them, the support
costs money, but the O/S is freely downloadable from the net.


That's interesting. I know it *used* to be free, but there was then
(after that) a period when it cost money. If it's free again, that's
good.

I thought it was OpenSolaris that was free and Solaris that wasn't? Of
course there may be very little technical difference between the two.
