I don't. But following the anouncement, which was made *four* years ago, I do 
expect Microsoft products to start appearing for Solaris.

Which, apart from not being likely, hasn't happened ---> publicity stunt ---> 
short term gain ---> long term bad for Sun's business ---> share value drops 
further.

Which portions of those projects has Microsoft helped with, or done?
