Jonathan Schwartz Coming Quotations

As volume economics take hold, the days of proprietary hardware and software are coming to an end -- yielding cost savings and efficiencies for customers that can dispense with one-off solutions, and revenue opportunities for Sun's open standard products. Our open-sourced offerings, including the Solaris Enterprise System, and our industry standard Sun Fire systems and storage offerings are the ideal platforms on which a diversity of OEM partners -- from defense systems to networking equipment -- can now build their products. Our aim is to be the preferred partner for the open source and open standard platforms the market clearly demands.
