Amy, >There's been some improvement: Q4's warning was issued 2 weeks earlier (on Dec 7), which is a significant improvement to the release date of Q3's warning (on Sept 21). Of course, a string of no-warning quarters would be the best improvement of all. Here's the San Jose Merc's brief article about the Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. analysts note that Sun may be losing ground to Intel-based systems. Inevitable, we got ECC on the cache at 40% of the price. -TV stock Sun shares slump on analysts' warning Sun Microsystems Inc. shares fell 9.1 percent after two Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. analysts said some products at the maker of server computers may be losing ground to systems from rivals. Sun fell $3.88 to $38.94. More than 113 million shares changed hands, making it the most active stock in U.S. markets. In a note to investors, Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. analysts Toni Sacconaghi Jr. and Elliot Rothstein said Sun's less expensive servers, which are used to power Web sites and corporate networks, may be ``slowly losing to cheaper Intel-based systems.'' www0.mercurycenter.com
