but not all tokens are equal and vertical integration is the name of the game. Solaris did not lose to Linux, it lost to the LAMP stack on commodity x86 hardware. without the "AMP" part, Linux would've been dead in the water.

The L part of LAMP is kinda irrelevant at the application level, though. From the point of view of running the software, SAMP or LAMP doesn't make any difference. So yes, Solaris lost the competition with Linux to be the first letter of the acronym.
