TO IBM INVESTORS .....

I am starting to hear more rumors about IBM buying Sun Microsystems ..... on the Sun thread in SI, from private investors and just now on CNBC.

1. I think I understand why IBM might want to do this, but what are the downside business and technology concerns about blending these companies into one?

2. What position would the DOJ likely take?

3. What price would IBM pay or what proportionate stock swap?

Thank you. I am long Sun.
