The truth is that Microsoft acted in bad faith, both by breaking their
original agreement with Sun, and now, by being disingenuous about their
reasons for not shipping a JVM. The actual reason is that "Microsoft
would like to see Java die as a programming language, and Sun die as a
company."

I totally agree.  But I don't see anything strange about this either.
Companies are supposed to try to kill each other off.  Push the law until
the law pushes them back.  Vicious competition is a trademark of American
capitalism.  Large companies are not moral entities...they are profit
maximizing machines.  And Microsoft is the poster child of American
capitalism.

Sun should have watched this before picking a fight...this guy is
psychotically relentless!
