  1. Sun / Microsoft relationship is a bit more clear.. by uid100 · · Score: 4, Insightful


    I appreciate the pointed questioning regarding MS and Sun's relationship.

    "InfoWorld: So a Windows system could show up as an N1 resource?"
    "Stern: No, that's not part of the development plan."

    Also interesting to note that Sun's executives position on Linux is "we will jump on it if corp. America puts their core IT budget money into it, otherwise we stick with Solaris".

    I see a lot of what Sun's 2-4 year plan is in this article, or at least what they'd like it to be.
