One never knows, JC<g>. EVER! <g> If it weren't for the CLUES, Q, it'd all be a big mystery. Let's review: 12 Koreans (one's named Sun?) have a small foo print OS. Chorus is also one. PalmOS is one. WinCE wishes it were one (too late now) and free Linux can be hacked INTO one. Sun (the company) has dragged it's 'JavaOS' over to the Trashcan metaphor. The idea of a 'portable' OS (again, particularly a Java OS) that is multi-purpose (like a PC) is so 'yesterday'. Anyway, SUNW wouldn't acquire it, AOL would. :) -JCJ
