Sun Microsystems is "talking publicly" this week with both Red Hat and Novell SuSE about doing native ports of their respective Linux distributions to the high-powered and relatively low-priced RISC-based T1000 and T2000 Fire Servers rolled out in New York on Tuesday. Find out more about how the open source bug has bitten Sun in this report from Jacqueline Emigh.

I imagine Sun's request being something like this...

Dear Linux Loosers,

Your stuff is crap. I mean the smell on my boots is more fragrant than the aroma of your "wannabe" technology. You claim you are the keepers of the open source flame, when we all know that ONLY Sun hold this torch. You are liars and scum of the planet. Your people are stupid and your superheroes are really zeroes!! Sniff, sniff... what's that smell.. oh no.. not Linux again. The whole world stinks because of you. They say the weapons of mass destruction were never found, but I tell you it's Linux. Destroying all worth of every technology company and destroying the U.S. economy.... Linux is public enemy number one.

Oh... btw, would you mind porting your OS to our new platform? We know that you never do things like this on your own, so consider this a very weak plea to begin work. A lot of stink can be hidden by porting to the right platform.

Thank you, your good friends at Sun.
