point" Member since:  If Sun wants desktop market share, this
mentality of "if you want it, do it yourself" has to stop. That
doesn't fly with joe blow desktop user,  What makes all you
people so sure sun *wants* joe blow desktop user using their
product? That doesn't help anybody, sun or otherwise. Joe Blow
doesn't write software, he doesn't control the server room, and
even in the odd case that he happens to be a manager... most
managers don't say "I use windows 98 on my desktop, therefor we
should put it on a server!" and they won't do it if they end up
using solaris for whatever reason either.  This "joe blow
desktop user" and "developer based unix system" combination
people keep trying to make doesn't really work...  That aside,
Sun deals with Solaris, not the distributions. Do you get onto
Linus for not including Firefox with every copy of the linux
kernel?  Or, do you bitch and
