SUNW's future seems to depend on building their brandname and Java helps in that respect, although it generates little revenue. We can endlessly debate here, but unless we know what the management expects and make inference about their expectation, the true expected future growth SUNW will simply be a guesswork. SUNW is planning to raise $1 billion in debt, equity, or convertible -- which one is not specified in the SEC filing. If they choose to raise debt, it will be a bullish sign. If they lean towards equity or convertible, then these choices would not be as good signals. Has anyone thought of making inferences about what SUNW management may be upto? Sankar
