Employee reaction comes in.
It'll be interesting to see more employee reaction of the Sun/Microsoft agreement over on the employee blogs, but Tim Sneath links to the live webcast and gives his reaction:
"I can't tell you how odd it feels as a Microsoft employee to see Scott McNealy (Sun CEO) and Steve Ballmer (Microsoft CEO) sitting next to each other on a press conference stage, let alone joking with each other and exchanging ice hockey shirts. We've been very vigorous competitors for so many years in the enterprise space, that I'm still in shock - it's the equivalent of Coca-Cola and Pepsi agreeing to share their secret recipes in terms of significance for the part of the industry I work in.
