Linux
Linux is an excellent OS to toy around with, work with, and do many other things in between. My favorite distro at the moment is Slax (http://slax.linux-live.org/). It is a USB/CD distribution, small, modular, and portable.
I got a cheap USB Stick for it, and can boot my own OS, with my own settings and full hw access to any computer with a USB interface (and enabled USB booting in the BIOS :)... without having to ask the owner for any password :)
At least in theory. I haven't found an opportunity to test it yet... :(

I do what I think is right. But I don't think that what I think is right can not be wrong.

I've just finished installing OpenSUSE 10.3 (off a magazine DVD) into my dualboot system. The only thing that gave me trouble was the Netgear USB stick, and even that is under control now (at least it seems so).
I always like to have an alternative ... and I think that being tied to a single platform sucks.

I run myself on most servers solaris as it is just little bit stabler for me, but on my home pc's I always run Gentoo just like the development way of it

Solaris 10 yes it probably would, but open-solaris is more made for home kinda like all the linux distros out there.
