John, the Intel and Yahoo ‘interactive TV’ effort makes total sense. You missed the essence of the announcement. You might want to check it out again.
Note: If you own a DVR/TIVO (I have my doubts), guess what? YOU interact with your TV! Times have changed, my prodigious prognosticator…
What does Sun do again? Oh yeah, they’re the Java company that sells grossly overpriced hardware.
HP or Futjitsu maybe. I’m not sure what a buyer would get from the purchase. Lots of companies support Sun hardware but it’s a shrinking market. The speculation sounds fishy to me.
I love the Lawrence Welk bubbles…. Comcast – other ISPs do it differently. Shaw (Canada) gives you a warning phone call if your monthly bandwidth exceeds about 60 GB. Telmex / Prodigy (Mexico) reportedly gives you full speed up to your monthly limit (which is reportedly only 4 GB !), but once you reach that, your speed turns to molasses for the rest of the month.
What does Sun have that’s worth selling, other than maybe Java IP?
