I suspect it'll be like "sleeping with the enemy"--someone from the Wintel camp, if the announcement is "really big". I wonder whether it could be some hardware companies, such as Compaq, or even Intel (but not very likely, they just announced some kind of partnership a while ago; Intel wouldn't want to make MSFT looking too bad by being in bed with SUNW again.) Or it could even be no other than Micro$oft itself. Could M$FT get rid of the Justice Department (at least partially) from its back by teaming up with SUNW? Another possibility could be Apple. It is rotten, but if the SUNW takes a bite, it may have a lot of entertainment value. Shi
