IBM should turn Sun into a cloud division. With Java/J2EE, MySQL and their storage/data center expertise it seems like a good match?

A full featured J2EE cloud solution could get a lot of traction with all the many corporates heavily invested in Java and looking to reduce costs (IMHO).

IBM probably should drop AIX for Solaris.

If IBM were smart they would enable a machine compilable version of Java to destroy C++.

Or even better, a good language to replace them both.
