“The only value you can add to a banana is a bruise”: The RH Interview with Sun’s McNealy
In a recent discussion with Cullen and Omar, about Dell, I recalled a
Red Herring interview with Sun CEO Scott McNealy I’d read — incredulously — but couldn’t find it.
Fortunately today, I found it again. For the sake of anyone out there wondering how Sun could sink as low as it has, this article provides an amazing insight into McNealy tilted world view. Dell as a reseller, not a competitor? Feeling sorry for HP?
It’s high comedy reading McNealy get testy at questions about the SUN-set.
On the topic: an interesting view from Kuro5hin on Sun’s rise and Fall. I’m not sure how to validate the author’s claims about EPIC and Windows NT being “failures,” but it’s an interesting view.
