Addi, nice to see you back in the sunshine. Both LSI and Sun rising.
I just read an article that reminded me of one of your predictions concerning Sun and Microsoft. It went something like both Microsoft and Sun would make money, but Microsoft would in effect become a subsidiary of Sun. This announcement by Cisco kind of reminded me of this:

Cisco, Novell lead Microsoft in
directory services race

By Scott Berinato, PC Week Online
October 26, 1998 9:00 AM ET

Solaris is making inroads as a key platform
for directory services, thanks to several new
developments that will bring broad directory
support to the Unix operating system.

Cisco Systems Inc. is developing a Solaris
version of Microsoft Corp.'s Active Directory
that, ironically, could beat Microsoft's own
release of the directory out the door.


Cisco could ship as early as February its
CNS/AD (Cisco Networking Services for
Active Directory), sources close to the
company said. Cisco has exclusive rights to
Active Directory code for developing the
technology on Solaris.


Addi, do you think it is time for the PE of Sun to go into the thirty range?

All the best,
Michael
