Sun Microsystems Continues Their Shopping Spree

Sun Microsystems, NASDAQ: JAVA is on a shopping Spree

Just recently it was announced that Sun would be investing over a Billion dollars in mysql, as reported in x86Virtualization post: “Brighter Days for MySQL, The Sun Rises Over MySQL“, now less a few weeks later Sun has struck again, and is purchasing Innotek the makers of the very popular Virtualization product: “Virtualbox“.

x86Virtualization reported on Virtualbox back on April 20, 2007 with the post “VirtualBox, Everything You Need To Know“, I’m happy to announce, under recent testing the mouse issue has been resolved in Windows 3.11 (yeah not a big deal for most people, but I like 3.11 for testing virtualization products.)

If you are curious about what else Sun has purchased in the past check out their complete (but not up to date) history: Sun Facts - Acquisitions History
