Sun is such a hypocrite

Scott McNealy use to love to say that Linux was like a cousin to Solaris and is in it together to fight the ?evil? Microsoft. Back in those days (2-3 years ago), I said McNealy committing scorched earth tactics that would ultimately hurt itself more than it would hurt Microsoft. I also said that Linux would eat in to Solaris much more than Microsoft because of the relatively easy migration from Solaris to Linux whereas migrating from Windows to Linux is much more of a alien concept to Windows administrators.

Now look at Sun and see what they?re doing. Obviously, they?re beginning to see the threat from Linux eating up the entire *NIX market and they?re scared. As a result they?re spreading FUD about Linux.
