You are quite right, and I'll tell you what it is: the foam from the fuming 
Slashdot fanboys. Did you read the comments there? The only company I've ever 
seen spread so much FUD is Microsoft.

I've been reading slashdot.org since 1997, and I remember when the Microsoft's 
"Halloween document" leaked out and was a big deal. Everyone was writing about 
how Microsoft was spreading FUD about Linux. It was this FUD theme that 
permeated the Microsoft themes and subsequent comments on slashdot.org for the 
next ten years.

And now that same community has turned around and is doing the exact same thing 
that they were blaming Microsoft for - spreading FUD about Sun and Solaris.

Why so much blind hate towards Sun and Solaris? It seems that everything Sun 
does is never good enough, and there is always some nit or fault to find. Is it 
because Sun hardware was something to drool over, but couldn't be afforded by 
the average geek? Is it anger towards historically high prices of Sun hardware? 
What is it?

Hate leads to anger
anger leads to suffering...
