Dishing dirt on Gates, Jobs
Former Sun Microsystems CEO Jonathan Schwartz used his personal blog this week to reveal some industry dirt and explain his side of the story about the end of Sun.
It's an insider's view of what really happened in the corporate board room and behind the curtain. It may be the start of a tell-all book about a big deal that ended a career and culminated in the takeover of Sun. Among the luminaries in this play are Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. Microsoft and Apple didn't take the bait, and did not respond to Schwartz's blogging.
"I think I've said pretty much everything I could say as CEO of Sun Microsystems," Schwartz writes in the "about" section of his blog. "The more interesting stuff was what I couldn't say. And that's what this blog (and maybe a book) is going to be about."
