Apparantly, Apple is interested in porting Sun Solaris' ZFS to Mac OS X. From the zfs-discuss mailinglist: "Chris Emura, the Filesystem Development Manager within Apple's CoreOS organization is interested in porting ZFS to OS X. For more information, please e-mail him directly at [email address]. Speaking for the zfs team (at Sun), this is great news and we fully support the effort."

I thought apple would be more interest with the root rather than the branches.
Why don't Apple buy Sun; that way they will pump their Server technologies and be very competetive with Microsoft. Besides, Apple and Sun have much in common.

"AAPL" market cap is 60 Billion; "SUNW" is 17 Billion, I think they can buy sun. And for the difference it would be the power to add to Apple throne in the server arena.
