Stefan,

It's good to here that Fujitsu is guaranteeing new credit lines and the like. I think that this company has good market, potential. One of the problem with SUN is their facination with Java. They are pushing "java workstations" and "java chips". While their maybe a market for these, I see the Sparc platform taking a back seat to all of this. It may come to a point where SUN decides to abond the platform completely (in terms of selling the machines) and focus on NC and thin clients.

You might think I am insane, but it is already starting. All their development effort in the last year was based on this java thing. Now I don't know whether Java will ever be that big or not, but what I do know is, that if someone wants a Sparc station, ROSS maybe the right choice, cheaper, and definitely giving the platform more attention.
