Sun had the hardware that Larry wanted for his engineered systems. Prior to that there was an announced partnership with HP for that.

The Google lawsuit came later. Remember the purchase was in 2009, when Android was still in its early days in terms of adoption and market share.

Thanks, so it was more of a "oh, look at what we have here" type of thing it sounds like.
