Oh no, we all gonna die!
Seriously, forget it.
It's third or fourth rumor of this kind this year. Should we discuss all
of them?

For those, who haven`t heard - this is the link

I don`t want to spread "oh no, we`re all gonna die", neither "forget it" talks.
Just want to know your opinion - in case IBM will acquire Sun, and rights on Solaris/JAVA/MySQL etc - what will be Solaris/OpenSolaris future? Will it will replace niche AIX, or they will be both replaced by Linux?
I just hope, that in case that IBM will buy Sun, they will not cutthroat
Solaris, but rather develop it. Big vendor aid is highly appreciated in
operating systems development.
Thank you.
