Nolan,
You're right on the money, Nolan. Didn't McNealy say in the earnings report call that SUNW was now being rewarded for the delays in enterprise computing solutions from MSFT & INTC?? SUNW is taking it right to MSFT's doorstep with Java & application servers and, importantly, is AHEAD of the race to penetrate the opposition's market.
MSFT finally has to go it alone w/NT: there's nobody out their to help them with their OS. Not Apple (Windows), not Lotus (Excel), not WordPerfect (Word), not Intuit (Money), not Borland (C compilers), etal... There's nobody to buy out, nobody to loot. No, this time they are writing something ALL BY THEMSELVES and they are falling flat on their faces with it.
The iron is HOT, it's time for SUNW to strike. |
