There were other workstation/server companies at the time. Sun wasn’t the innovator”

That's like saying there were other cars before Honda was founded, or there were other MP3 players before the iPod.
Its totally irrelevant.
The point being, Honda WAS founded, and proceeded to generate billions of dollars in revenue, sell millions of cars every year, and employ hundreds of thousands, same as Apple created the iPod and proceeded to take over the market.
Your “points” are like the futile blows of a half starved weakling.

There are other search engine companies”

And not one of them managed to make annual revenues of even one tenth what Google is making right now, or generate anything even close to the massive profits that Google is making, or create anywhere near the number of jobs that Google has created. Those who can do. Those who can't just talk about it.
Talk is cheap. Show me your actual results from all these people who "coulda".
Why didn't they?

There are other online auction companies.”

Why were they not successful?

I’m pretty sure he’s on your side.”

You sound as nutty as a fruitcake.
You make even the insane Keith Olbermann look normal.

“Its totally irrelevant.”

It’s no more irrelevent than claiming we need to let in legal immigrants at the current rate because a few have helped found American companies.

“Your “points” are like the futile blows of a half starved weakling?”

LOL. You might not have said that if you’d ever actually USED Solaris or dealt with Sun....

“Those who can do. Those who can’t just talk about it.
Talk is cheap. Show me your actual results from all these people who “coulda”. Why didn’t they?”

You can’t seem to grasp the concept that none of these companies are indispensible or not replaceable. If they hadn’t taken that market niche, someone else would have. You also still have not presented any reason why your examples mean we need to let in millions of people who largely will not contribute but will be a drain.

“Why were they not successful?”

They are successful. They are just targetted to industries that liberal scum PC companies like Ebay hate.

“You sound as nutty as a fruitcake.
You make even the insane Keith Olbermann look normal.”

Since you don’t have logic on your side, you resort to insults. Typical.
