This attitude is growing tiresome. I'd personally pick Linux over Solaris or OSF/1, period -- muchless SCO. Linux is smaller, faster, tighter, and more robust in nearly every way than any commercial unix I'm aware of.

Oracle7 for SCO, in my experience, runs about four times faster on Linux 2.x than on its native OS.
