You read it here folks...BRAVO Sun/Cobalt!...support from a software
engineer in response to a user's howl of agony. Well done guys....show
the disbelievers that you are solidly behind the userbase.

Note: THIS IS NOT FLAME BAIT, THIS IS MY OPINION ONLY. (My $0.02 in
other words)
I got tired of reading the "I hate Sun" type posts and thought it highly
appropriate to post this in response to the above.

Have a good day everyone!

Regards to all,
-Colin
