piercings and mohawks somehow make someone 'cutting edge' or a better coder? i think not. good developers will follow the jobs. i'll save you the trip to monster.com, here are some search results from there: search results ------ ------- java 5000+ .net 4581 c++ 3706 c# 3369 perl 2569 python 1035 ruby 547 cobol 286 - 5000 is apparently the limit for the number of results a query can provide at monster.com (weak) so there are most likely far more that 5000 java jobs in their database - couldn't figure out how to search for C reliably, but it's probably up over 5000 as well.

please... X11, NX, VNC and Sun Ray all suck ass compared to RDP. i use them all on a daily basis, and RDP is far and away the best of them all. authentication, remote devices (USB, printing), sound, mapped drives, etc. etc. none of these other solutions even touch on any of those features. not to mention, the performance of RDP smokes all of those others completely out of the water.

Wouldn't Solaris have to go along with the Sparc hardware business as well?

I mean what good is a new Sparc without Solaris to run on it?
