opinions needed

i was wondering if anyone has heard of a OS called Nexenta Operating System. It's a GNU-based open source operating system built on top of the OpenSolaris kernel and runtime software.
So, my question is has anyone heard and/or tried this OS out and if you have what do you think of it?
please, be honest

I have heard of such Operating system but am unable to download a copy for me, due to my weak internet connection my suggestion is go to the web site:

http://www.gnusolaris.org/gswiki - and then see the ''getting started page'' might have usefull hints on how to install.

If dual booting, make sure you back up your os and/or buy a second hard disk, so you wont risk loosing any other os installed.
