Google and Sun Microsystems Planning Major Announcement : GoogleOffice
<http://www.searchenginejournal.com/index.php?p=2282>

Sun Microsystems and Google are planning a major news conference on
Tuesday, October 4th (today) at 10:30 a.m. PT/1:30 p.m. ET. The
conference will be held by Scott McNealy, Sun Microsystems Chairman
and CEO and Eric Schmidt, Google Chairman of the Executive Committee
and CEO. Sun Microsystems announced that McNealy and Schmidt will be
discussing a new collaborative effort between the two companies. Yes,
that sound you just heard was Microsoft cringing at the thought of
Google and Sun working together.

Various analysts and geek gossipers are predicting that the
partnership will be centered around Sun's OpenOffice, an open source
office suite with alternative versions of Excel, Word, Powerpoint and
other "MicrosoftOffice-esque" type offerings and StarOffice, a Sun
project related to OpenOffice. To further escalate the rumors, Joerg
Heilig, the former Director of Engineering for StarOffice, is now a
Google employee.
