This just in from the founder of JBoss:

"1. they can
2. it's kind of cheap
3. RHT deserves this fate
4. my stock in RHT would go up
5. it would piss off IBM, SUN and LarryE all at the same time, it's beautiful.
6. they would integrate the business model without skipping a single beat, IBM did.
7. cloud computing a la Amazon, Google both directly compete!
8. need for those virtualized runtimes across run-times in windows, Unix. Think VMWare.
9. could provide basis for a larryE style acquisition of VMWare.
10. it kind of shocked Matt Asay."

Makes too much sense to happen. Where's the hubris?
