Yeah I had some great conversations about this on Twitter last week when it was announced. Interesting to hear how everyone saw the pros/cons and what the driving force behind the possible acquisition was. It'll be interesting to see how it works out... especially for your beloved (Solaris).

well there is a big buzz around work amongst the mid-range team. Any word on the answer from SUN?

I think this is more like the Twilight after dusk.

(IBM is not exactly a company that's known to treat its IT staffs well ... if the deal goes through I wouldn't be surprised to see large layoff in Sun).

I really don't know what will happen !

by the way, this link we received in an official email from SUN.

who knows, I only hope the great R&D SUN is doing won't stop after IBM take over !
