Sunw putting the "wood behind the arrow" must be what's happening with StarPortal. Are you kidding? They spent a fortune for Star Division. As you say AOL/Yahoo?Earthlink tied in will do the one thing that SUNW really wants: That is, to sell those high margin servers and maybe storage too. Th ASP market is huge for SUNW. StarPortal will boost EMC and SUNW storage business big time. Who will want StarPortal suite? Students; businesses....everyone who travels now doesn't have to schlepp a laptop. The fact that it is fully compatible with M$ Office suite is also huge. I can't wait for this to be BAKED! By the way, they have to make StarPortal "bulletproof" before they release it. They are looking at release this Spring or Summer.
