Sun to rev up browser push
CUPERTINO, Calif. (TechWeb) - Sun Microsystems said it plans to
re-enter the browser market with Java products aimed at desktop
and
non-PC clients. Jonathan Schwartz, director of enterprise
products at Sun,
made the surprising announcement during Sun's Java Software
Strategy Day,
where the company briefed analysts on the future direction of
Java. Schwartz
said Sun wanted to enter the highly competitive browser market
to provide an
alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer. "No one
under-estimates the
importance of an alternative browser like Netscape on the
desktop today.
We share the fear of the existence of a single browser, which
could turn the
world into a company store where everyone is forced to pay with
company
money - Microsoft's," Schwartz said. ###
