NEW YORK, Oct 21 (Reuters) - PaineWebber analyst Don Young said Thursday he lowered its rating on Sun Microsystems Inc. (NASDAQ:SUNW) to neutral from buy and cut its price target to $95 from $120.

-- Shares of Sun Micro were off four at 92-5/16 on the Nasdaq stock market in late-day trading.

-- Young said Sun may have strong visibility and a high backlog heading into the December quarter, but he is growing
increasingly concerned about the Y2K "bubble effect" with March quarter implications.

-- Said he still thinks of Sun as the strategically best positioned Enterprise Server company, but until he can get more comfortable with the Y2K issue, he thinks it's prudent to adopt a more conservative position.
