Recently, a few independent departments (Solaris, java, Netscape and other middleware) at Sun Microsystems got integrated into one, the Platform/Software Group. We had a quick chat with Mr John Fowler, Sun Software's CTO about Solaris 10, Java, the competition and more.

If you had been following SUN for a while, they are making a gradual transition into the software space as the margins on hardware is not very high.
Software on the other hand, you can get your margins very high through good designs, code re-use and so-forth.
As for GNOME and Solaris, good move. It is about time Windows advocates stopped throwing stones in their glass house and started to see the SUN.
