Sun has been pushing Forte and NetBeans into the IDE market for years so McNealy's asinine remarks regarding JBoss were a convenient target for the company's market place frustration. He pulled the same tantrum when asked about Linux a few years back and offered Solaris instead. We all know the punch line to that joke. They canned the effort when it was clear FreeBSD and Linux was about to rip them a new Van Winkle. Java got its start because of Sun but it has been wildly successful despite Sun. IMO it can only continue to dominate without Sun and e-tantrum pitcher Scott McNealy. I think Sun will be better off focusing exclusively on high-end solutions in telecom. They are starting to smell like Novell.
