Sun doesn't like Linux all that much, they want folks to 
use Solaris. HP and IBM's *nix are hacks of API calls over
older proprietary operating systems and both of them would
be happy to dump HP-UX and AIX forever. 

Net result: HP and IBM are on the bandwagon, Sun is 
recitent about horking linux too hard for fear of making
Solaris look less than perfect.
