Open Challenge to Scott McNealy
A challenge is being made to Scott McNealy to meet face-to-face with
members of the Save Solaris Organization and the Technical Press
in an open, public forum. Mr. McNealy is being challenged to
support his company’s actions and subsequent decision making with
respect to a large community of Sun customers. Mr. McNealy has
earned a reputation for .amboyantly berating his competition. His
loyal customers have earned the opportunity for an open forum.


How about an open challenge to Carly? at HPWORLD?
We are/were loyal customers as well.

Just a thought. Might be the only reason to attend HPWORLD ;-)
