Sun makes hardly any of their revenues from software, and besides, you can run Linux on Sun servers. The difference is, Linux doesn't scale to the 64 processors Solaris does, and it's just not as "enterprise ready". Even if Linux would take over the world, Sun would still be in good shape, since they could sell the servers for it to run on.
It actually is more of a threat to Microsoft. Microsoft makes literally NOTHING that runs on Linux. However, they don't perceive it as very much of a threat at this moment because the average user couldn't figure out Linux very well, and they've got a 95% desktop OS market share, Linux would have to cut away at that big time for them to get worried.
