Solaris is also a "supported" OS (well if you pay for it). It's also 64
bit and any program written for earlier versions will "just work". It's
32 bit layer also works out the box (trying to use 32 bit apps on 64 bit
Linux can be a PITA).

It's also very fast and debugging stuff can be much easier.
