Bye Sun

Sounds like bad news to me. I’ve come to expect shockingly bad support and service from Sun.

Does a goatee count?

I didn’t know why every morning when I tried to shave I couldn’t.

Well that and the Metallica Tour on South America.

Does this mean that my forum account at forums.sun.com will be unBlocked now? That would be cool!

:smiley:

why is it blocked in the first place?

well…
I replied to a post and had a link to my site in it. Went against the TOS. :persecutioncomplex:

Soul patch, man?!?

You got blocked for THAT?

The problem’s never been Sun here. If it can run multiple programs, it’s not allowed. It’s also why there’s no Flash on the iPad.

Actually Adobe CEO (or similar position) is shocked by the fact that the iPad doesn’t support Flash.

They could easily get around this by just installing a Java framework on the thing but not have applets in webpages. Then at least I’d get to port my code. Grr

Cas :slight_smile:

Kenai is also now being closed too. It looks like Oracle is just stripping Sun of all it’s products and assets.

… which weren’t making any money (I assume).

True, but it was quite a nice site for code hosting. I can’t help wondering if the Java Store will be next.

at least the Java Store has a potential for making money. Probably harder to say the same about kenai. But who knows, we’ll see.
