I have nothing but admiration for Sun's desktop developers, but it's 
hard to care for Sun's desktop strategy. The fearless leadership is just 
not serious about it. If it was, HCI designers would be revered and 
given as much credit as kernel hackers; instead they are exposed to a 
huge cultural dissonance from engineering community and little support 
from management. If it was, the more aggressive, result-oriented steps 
would be taken (don't ask me what... bribe key gnome developers? license 
aqua? dance around the fire naked? half of the answers lie within 
correctly asked questions).
