Lights On But No One Home At Sun Grid

cygnusx writes "The Register reveals that Sun's pay-for-use grid computing services hasn't picked up a single customer yet." From the article: "The missing customers prove quite shocking when you consider that utility computing users must agree to be named in marketing programs as part of their contract with Sun - a fact learned by The Register and confirmed by a Sun spokeswoman. More than one year since it first started hyping the 'pay-for-use grid computing services' Sun is still weeks away from presenting a customer to the public. The program has proved much tougher to sell that Sun ever imagined."

I am a Sun Employee

...says Anonymous Coward.

So, Sun still hasn't learned it's lesson?

Tell me this, Sun: are you a prominent, leading and enthusiastic participant in "The Community" or are you still pouring boiling oil on the unwashed masses from your ivory tower? Or are you creeping further inside your cave? Or maybe you are just scared? Confused?

Sun, what are you doing?

Flamebait indeed

Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind. Sometimes the truth hurts. Sometimes the mods are freebasing.
