The FRTE acquisition by Sun may jolt Inprise to rethink any offers that are still on the table. I really think Rational is a likely candidate for a stock swap deal. Inprise is now trading below book and that's really got to be ticking them off. A merge with Rational (Nasdaq: RATL) would make sense, but "making sense" could be a liability when trying to deal with INPR management. The FRTE aquisition doesn't mean that INPR is off Sun's table but any overlap has lost its value.

I'm fairly certain of one thing: these ex-Apple salesmen aren't going to turn this thing around. No way, no how.
