SUNW Rumor.

Given Sun's Java/JINI push (Kenya), and their network vision, such
a deal certainly makes great technological sense. Also, I'd
think Sun would jump at the chance to get into a service
business with such upside. Selling Solaris boxes isn't a
longterm win, they must be interesting in leveraging their
Java position into new markets.

Thus, I'd think an outright acquisition would be the result.

Price? Months ago I would predicted that GMGC would sell out only
at a huge premium. Now, not so sure.

Then again, GMGC is such a trader's vehicle. Hard to know
what is a mirage and what is real. Maybe this is another
trading rumor. Guess we'll know soon enough.
