I think the reason for the jump in SUNW shares is speculation that a bigger hardware company (IBM or HPQ are pretty much the two) might acquire them and migrate their customers to the bigger company's product roadmap, same thing that is happening with ORCL/PSFT. Doubt it will actually happen, but that's my speculation on the reason for the recent rise.
