An Analyst's View

“Small and medium businesses are frequently offered 'hand me down' or 'good enough' technologies. But such organizations increasingly benefit from exceptional IT, just as large enterprises do. So it's refreshing to see Sun Microsystems, well-known for innovative products, competing for the business of SMB customers.”

— Jonathan Eunice, Founder and Principal IT Advisor, Illuminata
