So how is this different from what we're using? Is it better, worse, not comparable??? I got out of microsoft because I idslike them. What I don't understand is why these linux and unix companies don't work together and really give microsoft a run for its money. But my questions still remain...

Some think sun is the best you can get in unix world. Regardless of whether or not thats true, it does have a huge commercial organization behind it that lends to good support and good optimizations.
