Sun Micro Gets Boost for JavaStation with Sabre Deal.

via Yahoo/Reuters

>Sun Microsystems Inc. announced a deal on Tuesday with airline reservation system operator Sabre Group Holdings Inc. that was widely seen as a coup for Sun's much-maligned JavaStation diskless network computer.

In the deal, which could be the largest to date for JavaStation, Sabre Group will resell Sun's JavaStation to its 40 airline and 75,000 plus travel agent customers.<

So what's the connection, you might ask?

Well, The Sabre website is powered by AAPL's WebObjects.

Also Sabre has complained long and loud about MSFT setting up its own travel service Expedia so I don't think they were hot to set up an NT network.
