<Well, SUNW is in the business of selling solutions and they are far more successful with enterprise computing solutions than MSFT could ever hope for. The article I referred to bears this out. I suggest you read it, and maybe you'll learn something about enterprise computing customers and what kind of solutions they demand. Otherwise, you're just an accountant with a bias toward MSFT.> You managed to avoid the questions so I'll ask it again. So, why is MSFT hiring and Sun firing?

cheryl - Their only real OS, NT, has yet to prove itself as a reliable server. Since the point of these discussions is to improve our ability to make investment decisions, doesn't the revenue generated by these sales carry the most weight? New Quiz for cheryl - 1) who makes more money on OS sales, MSFT or Sun? 2) extra credit - which generates more revenue, Solaris or NT? I think this is another issue where you will duck the facts, since the truth will undermine your arguments, but maybe you will surprise me...
