> Barrons not kind to Sun hmmm.... arent these idiots the same people who made a god out of Sun only 3 weeks ago?!! The only other name that I can think of to call the con-artists (i.e. analysts) is psychopath! The con-artist who talks about Sun has absolutely no idea what this company does or what direction it is going despite the fact that he mentions the buzz words fat-server-thin-client concept! He says: Sun Microsystems has done a phenomenal job with Java, but the reality is that 45% of their revenues still come from workstations, and workstations are going to go bye-bye, if this fat-server-thin-client trend continues. So Sun Micro has a problem." The only reality in this statement is that this guy is an absolute idiot who is trying very hard to be con-artist. But the only problem is he has absolutely no brain (which is usually the first requirement to be a con-artist)! In a thin-client/server centric model servers and thin client machines make money. Workstations are not servers, or thin client machines! In fact in my opinion Workstation growth will diminish in the favor of thin machines (such as NCs, and/or perhaps fat but cheap client machines such sun $1000 PCs). But the server growth will triple or more. What this guy is saying is that Sun continues to be a UNIX Workstation only company and is similar to saying that Microsoft is a company with 80% of its revenue coming from its DOS operating system! I really would like to know how one can become an analyst and play with billion's of dollars of other people's money? Is being a con-artist all it takes? Regards, Addi Jamshidi P.S - The link you provided requires users to be registered, at the risk of imposing may I ask you to cut and past the article here to see what these psychopath con-artists trying to tell the poor small investors? Most appreciate that...
