Look at Sun's OS markets. The biggie is Sparc. Their only real
competition there is with themselves (Solaris vs. SunOS). (No offense to
SparcLinux, but it will be a long time before it makes Sun grab their
wallet :) Their other market is the x86 PC/Unix market. In this market
Linux is the competition.
