Server Products comprised of Support Services (Support Services and Managed Services), and Professional and Educational Services. In January 2009, the Company acquired Q-layer, a cloud computing company that automates the deployment and management of both public and private clouds. Computer systems are not going away. JAVA is here to stay and will be on every computer manufactured.JAVA is a pick for the computer life cycle.Sun a leader in its field is experiencing a global capital collapse. Sun an innovater will survive. IT is experiencing the same issues as all your other companies. With little financing available try to view these companies as an armadillo. When threatened they roll into a ball of armour just to survive. The shell will open again once the credit starts flowing. IT investment will reward investors. I do expect capital investment in new IT will start to increase by the end of 2010 and steadily increase leveling off . Its definitely a take-over target for next one year or so with a price target of $12 to $15 a share !
