Sun Microsystems CEO: “We almost died”

Update: 2007-01-18

Description

Yesterday I sat down with Sun Microsystems‘ CEO, Jonathan Schwartz, and Tim Marsland, Sun’s CTO in charge of Solaris, and had a wide-ranging discussion from his pitch to Steve Jobs as to why Apple should include the Java runtimes on the new iPhone to Schwartz’ surviving a train wreck back in the 1980s and how that had a profound effect on his leadership skills.
