yeah, i have not been pleased with the quality of the HCL. there's plenty of hardware discussed on the forums and if you search the bugs db that has been confirmed and/or fixed to work on various builds of osol and solaris 10.
i wound up buying an AMD based machine (i wanted Intel) with 6 onboard SATA; Intel mobos had 8 onboard SATA; would have saved me some hassle. it was ICH10 too which is considered "Solaris Certified" or whatever. but the rest of the motherboard chipsets - graphics, network, etc. i could not verify good enough, and i am not ordering parts online which don't work and have to return them. i have had to do that too many times in the past.
