I'm concerned with the lack of focus and agressiveness in Sun management though. I'm just lowly investor/techie yet I see opportunities being missed left and right; as we discussed earlier. They appear to be just trying to ride the current wave and I don't see any bold moves to generate new revenue streams and a lackadaisical (had to look that one up) attitude toward the desktop.

Actually, they created the current wave (Java), and have the skill to ride it. For bold new moves, how about their Telecoms and Appliance initiatives (not bad for an iron vendor). I agree that they haven't been focused on the desktop, and that Solaris x86 won't displace Windows, but I'll be switching to it just as soon as all the software I use is Java, and the desktop becomes interchangeable. I'm tired of bluescreens.
