You might have already noticed all the buzz being generated in the tech. world due [Sun’s](http://www.sun.com/?ref=kudithipudi.org) [annoucement](http://news.com.com/2100-7341-5083654.html?tag=nl&ref=kudithipudi.org) that is might have to write off 1 Billion \[yeah, you heard that right\] dollars for this quarter. A lot of people are saying that this is the start of the [end](http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=11918&ref=kudithipudi.org). It is funny how bad decisions made by management can affect a company :). I always admired Sun for being a “technology” company, but in the last few years instead of being innovative and adopting to changing market needs, Sun stagnated. I mean, how many companies would think of going with Sun when they can get comparable technology \[Linux+Inte/AMD\] at a far cheaper price. What is wrong with people in the upper management? I have seen several companies go down just because of bad decesions by management. Do people loose their brains once they get there?? I do hope \[if not for the shareholders, at least for the employees\] that Sun can get its act together.
