I wonder why sun didn't invested 500M in linux ? (so much they did in solaris from the PR) ps: in my view they are opportunist and care about only themselves

opportunist, opportunistic, timeserving -- (taking immediate advantage, often unethically, of any circumstance of possible benefit)

also java is still closed source http://www.advogato.org/person/robilad/diary.html?start=58 so will be solaris
