Sun Still Clings to Java Dominance Pitch

Barber- you have it right. Hangin's too good for 'em.

Sun Microsystems: Burnout or Takeover Target?

I would be glad to sell for $25 each every share I own. Sun Micro is a loser. Takeover? In my widest dreams.

The Street Seems Disgusted With Sun Micro

The street is disgusted. I am freakin' nauseated. $12.78 as I write this. Get management into the room and release the nerve gas. JAVA- it's official. You suck.

Sun Microsystems' Next Linux Move

User- your point is taken about the amount of total money spent. Of course you are correct about that. However, in order for a small investor to DIVERSIFY there must be decent quality stocks available that do not require large amounts of capital to purchase. Or, I suppose the small guy could just purchase a mutual fund (yawn). You are also correct that splits, etc., have little effect on company value. Thanks for stating the obvious. To assert that a cheap stock price would not attract interest is something I must disagree with. Certainly speculators would be attracted, which generates activity in its own right, and money will always go where the action is. We can't all be stock market experts, so, quit putting down "amateurs", since we are the spine of the economy, and without whom so-called "professionals" would be jobless. Cheer up, because as long as there are losers like me, you can continue making enormous profits on the market. If your boss at McDonalds can find someone else to run the fryolator.

Sun Microsystems' Next Linux Move

Hooray for Sun's support of Ubuntu. I hope it works. Sun's performance lately has sucked big time, starting with that retarded reverse stock split a few months ago. Sun pisses me off. The so-called "experts" who engineered that particular brainchild didn't realize that Sun was mainly popular with home-gamers, like me, who could only afford to buy a stock that was under $10 to end up owning more than a few shares, and now that it isn't anymore (for the time being!!!) nobody wants to buy it at all. The logic was faulty. People who want, and have the capital, to buy high priced stocks are doing so elsewhere (Berkshire Hathaway, anyone??). The stock should have been split 2 for 1, not 1 for 4. Jerkoffs!
