Worth of a Company (Score 1)

A company worth is based on how much money it will make. How much money it will make is dependent on how much it makes now, and how well you think it can guard and grow this revenue stream. Other databases are available, and other companies could support the MySQL database, and not just the MySQL company itself (Oracle comes to mind). So I'm not sure how they could guard it. Sun should file a 10-K or another SEC filing to show how they valued it. McNealy needs to pull a Jobs, good luck!
