Comment Re:Sun is going to get stretched too thin (Score 1) 167
Sun (and Oracle) have been saying for a year or two that the "network is the computer", but nobody's yet managed to articulate why thin clients are convincingly better than what we have now. Sure, they're easier to administrate, but are they so much easier to administrate that it's economical for us to yank out the existing infrastructure and replace it?
Sun is a server company, and has been for years. And they make great stuff in that area. But they've made a lot of false starts in the desktop market (such as the Javastation) and folks should be wary.
