  Sun's Schwartz bashes Microsoft
Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: ComputerWorld | Posted By: Todd Richardson

Sun Microsystem's Jonathan Schwartz, executive vice president of the company's software group, has criticized Microsoft for pulling the plug on products that had a JVM (Java virtual machine) deemed incompatible with Sun's. In an open letter on Sun's Web site, he said that Microsoft had lost sight of customer priorities.

"Microsoft's recent unilateral decision to discontinue support for Windows 98 and other products as of December 23, 2003 offers users a lesson, and an opportunity," Schwartz wrote. "It's a lesson in how a company with legendary market dominance can lose sight of customer priorities, and force an unnecessary transition onto a customer base already paralyzed with viruses and security breaches."
