No_Ax..... Finally learning

Still a little bit MS diehard fan, but growing is part of life.

If Sun want MS-Office ported to Solaris X86 few $$$ will be in order, probably Sun have to return some of the $1B Microsoft paid for settlement. Billy boy, no doubt you are smart.

Limited means w/o some features? sort of what they are forced to do in Europe. If 800 million user around the world don't need, want those features, probably US user don't need it too?.

Even if MS partnered with SUN, won't last long.
just isn't MS way... History speak for itself.
IBM to push DOS (over), Compaq to push Windows 95 (over), Digital to leverage services, Digital is dead (over), HP came up again to leverage services (almost over, HP WMC is the only tight anchor), today Dell is the shinning start...

I don't know what people are thinking, 10 years ago partnering was the way to go... today the way to go is by Merge, buyout or get rid of non profit business. (HP "merged" Compaq, Oracle buyingout Peoplesoft.. IBM-Lenovo, ring a bell. Well what I see is: MS buying out Sun and is pretty much done!!!
