Another idea came to me after reading Software AG Deputy CTO Mike Miko Matsumara's blog, who thinks that with this deal collapsing, we might see the return of Sun Co-founder, Scott McNealy. Whether that happens or not, the company should also pursue an option of going private. The four Sun co-founders - Scott McNealy, Bill Joy, Vinod Khosla and Andy Bechtolsheim - swing enough clout in the Valley to help put together a rescue package. Given how easily Palm has been able to raise additional funding, I don't think Sun will have trouble raising the capital. Bad as it is - down 10.7 percent from fiscal 2008 - Sun will post revenues of just over $12 billion. And it still has a few billion dollars in cash.
