OpenSolaris 2008.05
I've just re-installed Open Solaris on my laptop using LiveCD. I was really surprised (positively) when NWAM detected my WiFi, asked me for WEP and during installation I could brows the Internet. However what really surprised me was that after install finished and I rebooted my laptop into Open Solaris it somehow remembered my password and got my WiFi automatically working without asking any questions - really cool.
