I'm not - not really interested in *anything* MS have to say! ;)
IMHO selling to IBM would've been disastrous for Sun. It'll be interesting to
see what happens to MySQL, Star Office
(OOo) and xVM. I doubt MySQL

IMHO selling to IBM
SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 20, 2009 -- Sun Microsystems (NASDAQ: JAVA)
and Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL) announced today they have entered
into a definitive agreement under which Oracle will acquire Sun common
stock for $9.50 per share in cash. The transaction is valued at
approximately $7.4
What does this really mean for us Sun die hards. I'm Sun certified in
systems, network and security -- I hope this still have value down the
road. But, what about the applications like SGD and the other products
we purchased and invest in heavily.
Personally, I'm somewhat excited but beyond that
Not as sad as IBM would have been.

I have been with Tarantella since SCO owned it.
The product range is a necessity for Oracle (different suit, similar address).
I'm more interested in Microsoft and Novell's reaction.
