The problem is the number of people who are into Illumos and want a portable Unix server is insignificant. All products came with fixed overheads (e.g. cost of tooling to start production), which have to be divided over the likely customer base. Small customer base == each customer pays a bigger share of the fixed overheads.<p>Basically, you want something to suit you and a small number of other people, but you won&#x27;t pay for the cost of having something that &quot;tailor made&quot;. You will only pay for the high-volume, lower-cost, more general product. So... that&#x27;s all you get.
