Re: I know its fun for some of you to bash SUNW now

From the Economist:

Government figures released on April 26th showed that GDP grew by 5.8%... But let’s not get too carried away just yet... A closer look at the elements which make up the GDP figure suggest that the overall picture is still somewhat mixed, despite a startling overall result... The figures which give most pause for thought are those relating to business investment. Overall investment fell 5.7% and final sales of computers dropped by more than 20%.

Cheer up - Sun is only reflecting the total economy (doesn't sound correct metaphorically though). When did you last hear about sales of computers falling by 20%?

Besides, Sun's high end servers (Starcat and Starkitty) are once again constrained. So Sun is probably doing better than its competition. That's not bad at all.
