Sun and Google partnership

Sun and Google announced partnership. No much was reveled except that Sun will bundle Google Toolbar with Java. Google will buy more Sun hardware - "We're already a Sun systems customer, and we're going to extend that quite significantly," said Google CEO Eric Schmidt.

"There's a huge alignment strategy with research and development, (involving) OpenDocument format, OpenOffice and OpenSolaris," said McNealy.

You can find a lot of media coverage for this announcement - the one I get citations from is here.

Well, this is good news. If Google will really get involved seriously with Open Solaris that would be great. Then Google buying more hardware from Sun (Opteron?) is another good news.
