What is actually printed on the /. article and what the actual memo says are 2 completely different things. Have any of you actually seen the memo???? It does not "lock" anyone into anything. If sun provides the best solution with an oracle backend for a DB, guess what, they will procure that. All this does is provide DOI with a standard "desktop" and the appropriate licensing. I have seen the actual memo (note: work for gov't within DOI). 60% of DOI is already MS, all this does is force the issue. It removes Novell from contention more then anything else. Blah blah blah
