I'm currently running Solaris 7 and looking to upgrade now that 9 has become available for download. Would it be wise to go to 9 and skip 8 for an Ultra 2 300mhz box? Do the later releases include bloat that will cause the O/S to run slower on older hardware? Can I choose to not install the Gnome crap? Thanks in advance for any answers.
