Co-founder Joy to leave Sun
TheLinuxWarrior writes "An article
at CNET says Bill Joy, Sun Micro co-founder and chief scientist, is leaving the company." You'd think after two decades of working at Sun, they could've found a better picture!

The Joy left Sun about ten years ago - when they realized that they were dying.
Fact: Sun is Dying
See my.sig!
Nero-burning ROM for Linux!
So...
Is it a man or a woman.
I think it's a man because it's designation is "Bill." Hmm.
Oh, and FP.
Oh no!!!! The sky is falling!!! Tech is doomed!!!
...
Oh wait

Another Co-founder of Sun was Indian (India born)
According to Wikipedia:
Vinod Khosla
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Vinod Khosla is a notable Silicon Valley venture capitalist.
A graduate from the Indian Institutes of Technology, Khosla was one of the original founders of Sun Microsystems. He founded Sun along with his Stanford University fellows Scott McNealy, Andy Bechtolsheim and a University of California, Berkeley post-doctorate Bill Joy.
Khosla always dreamt of being a millionaire as early as possible and so left Sun Microsystems in 1985 when he chased his dreams. Currently he is a general partner of the venture capital firm Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers, where he has been since 1986.
Khosla is also one of the founding fathers of The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE).
not that funnIE, but we'd do almost nothing to appease robbIE, whois thinking sumwon is his enemIE.
.asp on that. when the lights come up, there'll be no going back, & no where to hide.
in ?honor? of the seemingly endless eXPosure to the ?pr? ?firm? citings of the dinosaurious wons, we're building a vessel that floats on almost any suBStance.
that's right. you/we cannot afford the badtoll that lies ahead, should the greed/fear based georgewellian fuddite execrable fail to be neutralized.
it's also corewrecked that. J. Public et AL has yet to become involved in open/honest 'net communications/commerce in a meaningful way. that's mostly due to the MiSinformation suppLIEd buy phonIE ?pr? ?firm?/stock markup FraUD execrable, etc...
truth is, there's no better/more affordable/effective way that we know of, for J. to reach other J.'s &/or their respective markets.
the recipe is:
consult with/trust in yOUR creator. vote with yOUR wallet. more breathing. seek others of non-agressive intentions/behaviours. that's the spirit.
use key words/indexing to identify yourself/your products.
the overbullowned greed/fear based phonIE marketeers are self eliminating by their owned greed/fear/ego based evile MiSintentions. they must deny the existence of the power that is dissolving their ability to continue their self-centered evile behaviours.
as the lights continue to come up, you'll see what we mean. meanwhile, there are plenty of challenges, not the least of which is the planet/population rescue (from the corepirate nazi/walking dead contingent) initiative.
EVERYTHING is going to change, despite the lameNT of the evile wons. you can bet your
we weren't planted here to facilitate/perpetuate the excesses of a handful of Godless felons. you already know that? yOUR ONLY purpose here is to help one another. any other pretense is totally false.
pay attention (to yOUR environment, for example). that's quite affordable, & leads to insights on preserving life as it should/could/will be again. everything's ALL about yOUR motives.
take care, we're here for you.
Can't we all just get along?
We can meet on common ground - that CmdrTaco is an asspounding fool queer.
Let HP buy Sun. HP's support is 100 times better than Sun's. They actually start answering questions as soon as you're on the phone. None of that stupid "we'll call you back" crap. And HP-UX is a much nicer OS than Sun. A lot more Linux-like.
