Mary - Re: "SUN doesn't develop anything (more or less), they only market it better. That takes a lot of creativity. McNealy bets the company everyday going up against IBM, Intel, HP, SGI, Compaq and others. That takes guts."

I agree.

McNealy has taken an idea and parlayed it into a tremendously successful company - even though his (Sun's) products are marginal at best.

His brash public posture has - until recently - hidden the inner troubles at Sun.

But the Sun clock has ticked too many times - and McNealy's Reality Distortion field is starting to dissipate.
