SUNW becomes JAVA

When I first saw this in a news headline, I thought it was a joke or a hoax…? but no, Sun is in so much trouble that it needs every last attempt possible.

On a different note, did anyone else notice that Gateway got bought-out for a price well below it’s average price for the last year?? Looks like another cheap buy-out for the tech sector.

It seems like the rest of the (LBO) world might learn something about buying assets on the cheap rather than at new high prices…
