Just to toss in my $0.02, I happen to think that these commercials are a
WONDERFUL example of why Sun isn't the the only computer manufacturer
out there.  They have the worst marketing people I've ever heard of.
What message are they trying to convey in that add that Bill likes (the
only one I've seen)?  So now being a "rebel" and buying a "Sun" system
are the same?  Did I miss something?  I thought Sun was the big, stable,
giant of Unix vendors.  These guys couldn't sell water to an Arab in the
desert.
