>"sunw" has an agenda to kill "msft". It's blatant. Giving away products to hurt >"msft"'s top/bottom lines. Hey! Looks like MSFT has a case against SUNW for 'stealing Microsoft's business tactics"

Re: SUNW agenda The irony is that while SUNW has fixated on bringing down MSFT they've completely lost sight of the real threat to their own processor franchise: EMC. It wouldn't be the first time in business that personal animosity proved to be a fatal distraction, but the old processor-centric worldview that SUNW champions is being replaced by a new storage-centric paradigm as we speak. And for double irony, it is processor-neutral programming technology such as SUNW's own Java that is accelerating this transition.
