Addi, why do you say Sunw is an internet company?

I don't think they are providing servers for the Internet, their machines could be run or configured as servers, so are HPs, Dec, IBM, wintel and heck, Mac's. Sunw to me was a unix workstation maker and still is, until they can prove that their Java*.* could bring in cold hard cash. Right now, Sun is picking MSFT to fight over Java/activeX and although Microsoft hinted they might support JavaBeans that does not mean Sun is earning anything. Other than this Java thing, I don't see sunw doing any internet software biz, which I perceive as WWW server or big authoring tools (some experimental scripts that do not make money should not be accounted at this stage :)

Thanks for your attention and have a great 1997!
