JC: This doesn't represent any port to Solaris of anything. Bill G. and Ballmer will dry up and blow away before that happens.

What's to say those two things don't happen concurrently.

It's just a Solaris server spewing chunks of Win32 binaries.

I understand what you guys are saying. I just don't think that's the way it's going. This deal with Solaris platform Verio and the acquisition of the Win32<->*nix tool maker, and the announcement of the M$ branded Not JavaStation CE client tend to point in a new M$ direction, away from the desktop Office bloat and Win32 binaries. The rental thing is just aimed at legacy Office fat client revenue cows. That won't be a growth area.

IMO
