It seems clearly connected with recently announced plans to start closing the Mac OS X application ecosystem. Apple clearly wants to discourage 3rd party platforms on OS X, as they so controversially did with iOS.
He could just decide to retire. It would be a natural decision after being thus rudely slammed into the ugly, rapacious side of the industry - painful and disillusioning after working in the engineering-focused environment that Sun had been since 1984.
Dr Gosling won't be panhandling on the street any time soon just because he walked out on that bunch of lunatics. His tenure at Sun would have left him substantially well off.
While 'bad kings' Bush, Cheney and Blair (and hundreds of others - including Kissinger) have certainly earned beheading for their crimes, they won't even be brought before a court. That's progress!

The classic Coppola movie, The Conversation.
Her memorable vocals on many albums by "Faithless," hardly an obscure band (and she has appeared in their music videos, I believe).
We had a long hot Summer this year in Toronto, It's only really cooled down in the past couple of weeks.
Not sure where the "no Summer" business comes from. Even Winter only lasts 4 months in TO.
Sigh. *Never* have mod points when I want 'em. #firstworldproblems & all that
What's "legal" about Microsoft?! Convicted multiple times in anti-trust actions. Never out of the courts. Lost thousands of smaller cases.
Gates hasn't got an honest bone in his body, all his reputation laundering notwithstanding.

Don't watch their films or buy their music.
It's all poisonous, propagandistic crap anyway.
