Jonathan wound up at Sun through an acquisition of Lighthouse Design
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighthouse_Design" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighthouse_Design</a>.  The software from Lighthouse Design turned into a dead end (Java won out over OpenStep).  Based on that experience, he has this quote:<p>"And the most effective mechanism I’ve seen for driving that commitment begins with a simple, but emotionally difficult step.<p>"Upon change in control, every employee needs to emotionally resign from Sun. Go home, light a candle, and let go of the expectations and assumptions that defined Sun as a workplace. Honor and remember them, but let them go.<p>"For those that ultimately won’t become a part of Oracle, this will be the first step in a new adventure."<p>Poignant and disturbing.<p>A very sad day for Sun.  A very sad day for the tech world.
