Sun should use their Grid to DDoS back the attacking machines. After all, Sun has a formidable weapon here now.

WRONG!! You don't have to write highly specific code that can be run in parallel, you can run several different apps on several different machines if you want to and combine the results. You can run huge number crunching algorithms or you can do your Sodoku game. Whatever you want as long as it will run on Solaris 10 and X86 architecture. P.S. learn to do your homework on something before commenting, then learn to write and learn to spell.
