-> -> “ 
As you all probably know by now Sun decided to sell Windows 2003 servers (gasp, sputter… Scott McNealy would surely turn in his grave on hearing this news; wait a minute, he is still the Chairman of Sun) on its hardware.大家都可能知道,现在孙决定出售的Windows 2003服务器(赞叹,溅射…麦克利尼一定会反过来在他的墓者听到这个消息;等一下,他目前仍是董事长孙)就其硬件。 The key question on everyone’s mind is has Sun finally found a direction as Microsoft’s partner or has Sun joined the dark side as some would like to say or has Sun finally lost its marbles or whether it is really a strategically brilliant move?关键的问题对每个人的心目中是有太阳终于找到了一个方向,作为微软的合作伙伴或已加入太阳的阴暗面,正如一些想说一说,或有太阳终于失去了大理石,或是否这真是一个辉煌的战略举措? Significantly Jonathan Schwartz, CEO of Sun Microsystems, is eerily silent on his显着总裁Jonathan Schwartz ,总裁兼首席执行官的Sun Microsystems ,是两者惊人的相似,他就沉默 blog博客 about this initiative and continues to关于这一倡议,并继续 promote OpenOffice促进了OpenOffice as an alternative to Microsoft Office.作为一种替代微软Office 。

Sun’s Strategy or lack of it… Sun的策略,或缺乏资讯科技…
In its early days McNealy adopted a在其早年麦克尼利通过了 strong anti-Microsoft position强烈的反微软的立场 primarily as a marketing tactics and continued it over the years.主要是由于营销策略,并继续它在过去几年。 I really doubt that it helped Sun in any way.我真的怀疑,它帮助太阳以任何方式。
Sun did however undertake several initiatives over the years to undermine Microsoft of which only Java succeeded and Star Office / Open Office to some extent.孙没有,但承诺多项措施,多年来破坏微软其中只有Java的成功和Star办公室/打开Office在一定程度上。
Java Desktop is one of the many initiatives where Sun couldn’t make much headway. Java桌面就是其中的许多倡议Sun将在何处不能作出很大的进展。 In the process Sun ended up open sourcing Solaris & Java, both of which, especially Solaris, I think are strategic blunders.在这个过程中孙结束了开源的Solaris和Java的,这两项研究,特别是Solaris操作系统,我认为是战略失误。
Solaris (and many would say the original Sun OS) was the life blood of Sun for many years. Solaris操作系统(和很多人会说,原来孙OS )的是生命的鲜血,孙多年。 Sun OS & Solaris on Sun hardware is what gave Sun strategic advantage in the middleware market.孙操作系统及Solaris操作系统的Sun硬件是什么了孙的战略优势,在中间件市场。 While Sun lost its ground in recent years, I would attribute it more to lack of comparative CPU performance improvement (wrt. Intel chips) than to Solaris.而Sun失去了它在地面最近几年,我想它的属性更缺乏比较CPU性能的改善( wrt.英特尔芯片) ,比Solaris操作系统。 Solaris remains to this day the leading stable production ready operating system . Solaris的仍然是这一天的领导,稳定生产准备作业系统 。
Sun should have moved over to using Intel chips much earlier.孙应该有移动到使用英特尔芯片的更早。 Steve Jobs made a wise decision to move over to Intel chips and so should have Sun.史蒂夫乔布斯作出了明智的决定,提出到英特尔芯片,所以应该有孙。 Moving over to Intel (not Wintel) would have allowed Sun to keep its competitive advantage.移动超过英特尔( Wintel联盟不会)将允许太阳保持其竞争优势。 Instead Sun at one point decided to even downgrade importance of supporting Solaris on Intel chips.而不是太阳在1点决定,甚至降级的重要性,支持Solaris操作系统的英特尔芯片。
Several of recent Sun’s initiatives leads me to think that Sun is not following a unified strategic vision in the last 4-5 years.几个最近Sun的举措,我认为孙是没有经过统一的战略眼光,在过去的4-5年。 Most of Sun’s initiatives appears to be fishing expeditions, unguided by a vision or sense of purpose.大多数Sun的举措似乎是捕鱼探险,制导由一个远景或目的感。 Sun reminds me of our孙令我想起我们的 Defence Research Development Organization国防研究发展组织 (DRDO) which is spending our military fund on (印度国防研究) ,这是我们的军事开支,基金的 agriculture; and prides itself on finding the hottest chilli农业;标榜就找到了最热门的辣椒 . 。
Logically the only option that Sun has moving forward is jumping 100% into the services bandwagon and start competing with the likes of IBM & Infosys.在逻辑上唯一的选项,孙已向前迈进的是跳跃100 %到服务行列,并开始与IBM之类的& Infosys公司。
Sun Preparing for Microsoft Takeover?孙准备微软收购?
If I were to speculate, I wouldn’t rule-out a takeover of Sun by Microsoft.如果我猜测,我将不排除出一接管孙由Microsoft 。 First a 2 billion dollar dole and now Microsoft has Sun as its Windows 2003 server vendor, Microsoft definitely has Sun by the short hairs.首先是20.00亿美元,多尔和现在微软已经孙作为其Windows 2003 Server的供应商,微软绝对有孙由短头发。
