Hi Quicksand - According to the article: "As part of the deal, AOL would forge a pact that allows Sun to develop and market Netscape's business software. Sun would guarantee revenues to AOL in exchange for the software..." ===================================================================== I do not like the idea of "guarantee revenues" but prefer a royalty payment (percent of revenues) scheme. Maybe a compromise can be obtained where a minimum payment (or guarantee) is made to AOL for the next three years with unlimited software downloads for SUNW of JAVA , JINI and SLOARIS software through the portal. I really wonder how much the Netscape enterprise software is worth considering SUNW just bought that other enterprise server company some month's back. EKS
