If Sun really felt that way and had a single face, Java would be truly open source without shared code, restrictions or lawsuits when someone out-innovates.

Maybe you can tell me what MS has innovated lately.

Lets see they bought WebTV, they knock off Netscape, they are trying to knock off Java to fragment it,they are trying to knock of UNIX with 80% new code for the much hyped release of NT5.

The only thing I can come up with is that they innovated the art of FUD, they are trying to innovated the word monopoly to mean you need 99% of the market for a monopoly and innovating the word predatory practices to mean that giving away free products is benefiting the consumer. The only problem is that now the DOJ is looking into these new innovations. That dam DOJ they are trying to prevent MS from innovating. I wonder if MS should purchase Websters dictionary so they can officially change those two words monopoly and predatory.

JMHO
