Fangbing: > I think Wall St. (whoever that might be) has the PERCEPTION that > MSFT is going to be a big threat to SUNW which is false. In fact Microsoft's announcement of ActiveX availability on Unix will end up hurting NT! The so called brilliant investment minds of the stree (Wall street that is!) dont have the slightest idea what technically ActiveX controls are and what they can do. All they see is that this is a compettitor to the JavaBeans model and therefore now that ActiveX will be available on Unix JavaBeans will die and therefore Sun will be hurt! WRONG! WRONG! As I have said before Sun is not into software, does not care about it much, and is not planning to make money from Java! Sun is using Java as a tool to boost its hardware, and thats it! With ActiveX available on Unix, Sun's servers, workstations and eventually NCs will be in demand like air is to human beings! Only time will tell (and not too long from now) how we (or at least I) wished to have more money to buy SUNW at these prices. Regards, - Addi Jamshidi
