I have tried to install a plain postscript network printer on Solaris. Scream! I gave up. On Linux: I started the printtool, give the IP number and it printed right away.

Yes, this is the argument Windows users use against Linux, but you would expect these kind of things to work better in a expensive, commercial product than in something you just download for free, right?
