Very true but companies are driven by two things, the personal agendas 
of the people in power at the company and collecting up wealthy, I can 
see IBM liking Linux in the long run since they're making lots of money 
off their patents and don't really need to make that many products any 
more but Sun who is not financially secure like IBM will always have 
that desire to amass more wealth.
