I tried out Joyent back when they did a year's free VM promotion with Facebook. I found Solaris to be very nice, but it required a little work to get software built for linux to build on it. Different C compiler for one thing. Usually for common pieces of software, like ruby there is a guide on the Joyent website for compiling.
