Could it be pressure from new SUNW chip announcement?

Elsewhere, Sun Microsystems (SUNW: news, msgs)
added 3 5/8 to 71 1/2.

That company is reportedly ready to unveil a new
chip that is designed to handle multiple functions
including graphics, voice and video at high speeds,
according to published reports. Architectural details
are set to be announced Aug. 16.

The MAJC chip (pronounced "magic") -- the acronym stands for "microprocessor architecture for Java computing," according to The Wall Street Journal -- is said to be geared to such products as set-top boxes and video game consoles.
