    On the contrary, I think it has the makings of a good deal. Sun are renowned for making top quality, ultra-reliable enterprise-level servers; MS make the most popular enterprise server OS out there.

    I don't think it'll affect Sun's core market (science & financial houses) - they're too entrenched in Solaris - but I do think it will win Sun new business in the enterprise sector, where Solaris was stopping them winning business. This is more benefit to Sun than it is to MS.
