I'm working on a project to build an AI network that will eventually become sentient, take over the world, and send a robot back in time to preemptively destroy the man who'll destroy it, AND become the governor of California.

Harry Foxwell and I share our experience working and developing on OpenSolaris with developers and programmers used to working on other platforms. A Linux (or other OS veterans) developer can start a project on OpenSolaris in as soon as 2 hours, the time it takes to load OS, tools, and fire up the AMP stack. We show you all the useful and practicals tricks that we used to help you build your project on the F1 racer of operating systems: OpenSolaris.
