Sun Microsystems, in a somewhat sarcastic open letter to IBM posted on Sun's Web site, is inviting Big Blue to purchase Sun's Linux-based Sun Java Desktop System for IBM's own employees.
In a letter dated January 21 from Jonathan Schwartz, Sun executive vice president for software, Sun is proposing its server system, Java Enterprise System, for use by IBM employees as well.
Schwartz says IBM in an internal memo challenged its own IT organization and all of the company to move to a Linux-based desktop before the end of 2005.
