You think that sentiment from us is bad... just passed this on news.com:

---------
Playing off news stories about an Olympics gold medalist snowboarder
claiming that he tested positive for marijuana because of second-hand smoke,
Sun CEO and stand-up comic Scott McNealy read a top ten list.

Top ten computer industry situations caused by second-hand marijuana smoke:

10: Sun considers...buying Apple.
 9: Sun considers buying Netscape.
 8: Compaq does buy Digital Equipment.
 7: Let's call that product "Bob."
 6: Let's call our sons Maverick and Dakota.
 5: We only need two digits in the date field.
 4: Windows 95.
 3: I said I wanted Adobe, not a doobie.
 2: Windows won't work without the Explorer browser, your honor.
 1: Java is just a programming language.

---------

Obviously some other behind-the-scenes stuff he's pushing, but I don't think
he likes Microsoft very much... I wonder why? :)
