The Sun Open Source Model

  > deliver, for a fee, the means to create value between deploy and scale, for those who need it. Ok, I do like reading business books, but that one went over my head. Can anyone give an example of what they think it means? I'm quite interested to see what Sun does with open source.

    Sounds like "deploy for free, pay for scale"

      Sounds vaguely plausible. For something like Mysql, I can see it. For stuff like Java or Openoffice... I'm not so sure; although I'm sure there's lots of consulting work to be had regarding Java.
