I've worried also that Scott (SUNW) & Larry's(ORCL) animosity towards Gates would get in the way. It seems that Gates is also on a personal vendetta so maybe that will level the playing field of emotions. Perhaps.

Re Java from Ben's post about article.

"It's focused entirely too much on the personal battle between Gates and McNealy. The argument between Microsoft and Sun Microsystems is diminishing the successes and failures of Java." As an example of one of Java's successes, Ross points to the recent release of a pure Java
spreadsheet program from Applix, which he says fully lives up to
the "write once, run anywhere" mantra."
