Hmmmm, give me some examples and tell me how Sun plans on making money off them. Sun has stayed clear of really making money off their software ideas, tending to give them away to public domain: RFS, RPC, NIS, NIS+, and now Java to name a few. Sun is a hardware company.

Companies such as MSFT though, have capitilized on the tech foundations they've built. They have every conceivable type of software for sale from games to database engines and probably the best desktop office software.

I totally agree.
Sun is capturing the internet server market and nt server is falling behind.
Giving away some components just improves your position. ms did that with explorer.
Look for sun to move up steady.
The data center is getting tired of wintel.
Just my thoughts.
