Why doesn't Sun colaborate with Lotus/IBM or Corel/Wordperfect to provide a complete desktop solution on Solaris that competes with what Microsoft Office IBM has E-suite which they plan to run on their own NC so I don't see them getting together since it looks like they are competing in the NC area. About 6 months ago I asked this simple question on this thread but it didn't generate much interest at that time. Do you think Sun should go after Corel to get into the office applications area? Corel has a UNIX Wordperfect program but no total Office solution for UNIX. Applix has UNIX office applications. If Sun plans to take on MS I would think they should look at developing some office applications since they say MS makes big revenue in that area. JMHO Mike
