a ridiculous presumption
This book makes a mythical presumption that there are Linux
houses out there just itching to get roped into an expensive
dead-end proprietary OS.

There seems to be a serious disconnect between Sun's hardware
and software divisions, with the hardware people gung-ho for
Linux, and the software people ready to drag Sun right down the
toilet by clinging to Solaris at all costs.

This book is plainly aimed at mid-level IT managers. The text
assumes average intelligence and no real knowlege of operating
systems in the reader. There is practically no content. The book
is small, and can easily be carried around in the hand by a
manager wishing to alarm the IT folks by his choice in reading
matter.

There is, in a few words, no market for this book. It is a joke
perpetrated by someone in Sun's Solaris division at the expense
of companies with too much money to spend on IT infrastructure
and too little knowlege to make good use of it.
