At my workplace, our datacentre is 99.99% Linux. Our distribution of choice has always been SLES but over time we have had to install CentOS, RedHat, OpenSuse for various reasons (some commercial apps required platforms, etc).
As part of looking at what to do with this dogs breakfast, we are seriously considering going to Solaris x86, whether it is OpenSolaris or genuine Solaris is still up in the air.
If there's someone that understands how to build and support enterprise operating systems, it's Sun.
