Anyone seen that one coming! What a bunch of whinnies, losers, and idiots!!! I think Sun, AOL and Palm know that they lost the Microsoft antitrust case, which looks like the settlement with U.S. DOJ will be approved. So that the losers do? They invent not new product, but rather, invent new lawsuit, so predictable.

Sun Microsystems Inc. on Friday said it filed a private antitrust suit against Microsoft Corp. in United States District Court in San Jose, California seeking damages for harm it claims was done to its business. Sun said that the complaint alleges that Microsoft has engaged in anti-competitive conduct and stems in part from the software company's decision to ship its new Windows XP operating system without any support for Sun's Java software. Sun also called for Microsoft to disclose and license the computing protocols and formats related to products such as Internet Explorer, which is used by consumers to access the Internet.
