It's pretty fucking simple. The CEO is just looking to continue MILKING the Company of millions each year in executive compensation, and the board of directors is asleep at the switch. It's incompetence all around. Activist Investor is right on the money. Unfortunately, SUN is not going to change its ways unless management and the board of directors are expunged, and that is unlikely to happen because it's easier for any investor that cares to simply liquidate their shares and invest elsewhere.

Are you gonna' sit there commenting that the water is getting so hot I suppose we'll be parboiled for long, yep, are leaders are terrible, gee, it's hot - OR are you going to become pro-active and start a revolt? Thought so! Another Red Lobster special. Seriously, how many employee-shareholders can get their act together to find replacements for MLP and his constipated BOD?

Nice quote in there about how Enron has 'committed to buying bazillions in Sun Servers, with no intention of slowing over the next 5 years'. A delayed-release punchline, to be sure.

Just wait until they warm up SunOS, add some animations to the GUI and try to sell it for 10x times the price. This will drive Apple's marketshare into triple digits and the Sun will set for good. Akhenaten will leave Amarna. New Pharaoh will reign. Sun is the new Apple. Just wait until they warm up SunOS, add some animations to the GUI and try to sell it for 10x times the price.

Time to start a shareholder revolt at Sun because these people will not follow your advice, they are incapable. Pick your team for the BOD, hire attorneys, white knights, angels, anyone, get started now, the sooner the better.

ALSO:Since Java has been GPL’d, it is no danger of dying out for a long long time, will probably evolve and work a helluva a lot better in long run.
