If Sun wanted a 100% Pure Java office suite, why would they buy a non-100% Pure Java office suite, throw it away, and then write a 100% Pure Java office suite?
OK, I JUST SPOKE WITH MY AOL CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE. HE TOLD ME TO "SETTLE DOWN DUDE" AND TO "JUST RELAX". HE ASSURED ME THAT AOL HAD THE "CTRL V" PROGRAM AND I COULD USE IT WITH NO EXTRA CHARGE. THIS IS TRUE. JUST WAIT. I PREDICT THAT THE NEXT VERSION OF MICROSOFT'S WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEM WILL BUNDLED THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY, "CTRL V". COMPANIES LIKE AOL INVEST MONEY AND BRAINPOWER TO CREATE INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS LIKE THE "CTRL V" PROGRAM. MICROSOFT STEALS THESE INNOVATIONS AND BLOCKS THIRD-PARTY COMPETITION WITH ILLEGAL FEATURE BUNDLING. I PREDICT MICROSOFT'S WINDOWS 2000 WILL BUNDLED FULL "CTRL V" TECHNOLOGY. PAY ATTENTION DOJ!!!11111!
I thought Sun considered themselves a "hardware" company. Makes sense, though. They are the McDonald's of the computer industry. People go to McDonald's to buy $0.39 hamburgers, but McDonald's makes their money from $1.99 soft drinks (made from dirt cheap sugar water). People go to Sun for Solarias and free Java, but Sun makes money from their expensive hardware. Apple does the same thing. People buy Macs for the MacOS, but Apple makes money buy selling expensive, proprietary hardware. This is a great strategy. I just don't see what SGI is doing, though. SGI will sell people free Linux, but make money selling commodity Intel hardware (with some proprietary SGI video hardware thrown)???
Actually, bugbear3000's posts now start at a chilly -3 points!

Who are these "SGI analysts" telling you to buy SGI stock? Would you rather invest your money with a sinking ship or the industry gorillas: MSFT, AOL, INTC, CSCO?
