Hmph. more from this.

Looks like Schwartz fancies himself has a hachet man.

"The company has done several rounds of big layoffs in the last three years.
 Sun has cut 2,700 jobs since August of last year in two separate
 restructurings. The company had previously cut about 4,000 jobs after
 Schwartz took over as CEO from co-founder Scott McNealy in 2006."

one piece of potential "good" news, is that they are splitting off OS into a
separate division once again. 
We'll see if there's anyone sane left at sun to do a good job of heading it
up. sigh.
