Unfortunately this may be the case, although it doesn't necessarily need to. The original "press release" is dated March 30th, rather than April 1st. Whatever, even on the Titanic they didn't stop playing music and dancing. So, let's all be happy and funny. I can organize some excellent Ukrainian Vodka for us. Here is a funny Scott McNealy fake-blog (ok, maybe it is only a cover-up for the real one) : http://fakescott.blogspot.com/ """The Secret Diary of Scott G. McNealy I'm the first ex-CEO to ever have a blog! Ain't I? Thursday, April 2, 2009 The Fight Has Begun!!! Answer My Poll, Sun Shareholders!! I'm weighting the support I'd have if I decide to fight against the IBM merger, so I just added a poll in this page. It is intended for Sun shareholders, so if you have some shares, let me know if you'd support me with yours to avoid this Devil's son, I mean, this mistake of a merger. And do it soon, rumor has it that next week could everything be over. And they are offering halve what they spend on peanuts... Of course, once I take the control of the company back I'd fire My Little Pony first thing in the morning. No hard feelings. I chose you, I fire you. If you feel like, you can add comments saying how many shares you'd retain with you or would be willing to sell me (in that case say your price). It would be better to send me and e-mail, but we don't want to fill (real) Scott's account with spam, so I'm sure he'll read this blog and make the calculations. Again: I'm not Scott McNealy pretending not to be me. Namaste...""" Cheers, %martin _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
