So I guess in order to rebel against the system, Apple went with the
company that already has 80% of the market. 🙂

Also I wasn't aware that Apple and Sun were on such non-speaking terms.
Until now, I didn't even think they were in the same market. 🙂

Well, the XServe and some of Sun's lowest-end 1Us are probably direct
competitors...
