Sun's Schwartz finished under Ellison? (The Register)

[Posted January 26, 2010 by ris]

The Register reports that Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz is thinking of quitting Sun Microsystems. "News of the exit comes as Oracle Ellison and team, along with some of Sun's executives, are scheduled to announce their strategy for Oracle and Sun products on Wednesday. The unveiling comes after European-Union regulators finally decided they were satisfied with the industry's largest database company owning MySQL."

The sense I got from that article is that they won't quit, because they'd lose a whole lot of dosh. It looks like they are being fired.

Yes, and they'll get millions to go away. Nice job if you can lose it.
