My comment:
How is Google supposed to compete with Microsoft? What is the solution? The new mantra at Google is partnerships, partnerships, partnerships...What’s the big deal? Google and Sun work together. Officially. Microsoft is the target. Period.

Scott McNealy:
“We are going after revenue, growth, profits, customers…We are going after the community…”

"Google should and will diversify its revenue model. They remember Netscape's doom and won't repeat the same mistake. The advertising model won't be enough in the future."
