Heh, of course - I should have put an 'almost' in there (my brain did, but my 
fingers did not :-)

We've seen many big players vanish in the last decade or 10-15 years though, 
and if Sun go then that doesn't leave much left. I suspect IBM are in a good 
position, being one of the surviving few - but then I'd always thought the 
same about Sun...
