Samsung and Sun
Other than buy outs, the big news today comes from Samsung on the chips used to make 32GB flash memory cards; and from Sun Micro who has released a new line of computers.
The Samsung announcement brings to mind future release of an iPod nano with as much storage as the bigger hard drive based models. Or even keeping your computer working environment on a keychain.
Sun's new line of computers start with the X2100 model whose $745 low end price seems a bit of a teaser. However there may be a few farm environments where disk-less CPUs will be used, so I won't completely condemn them for cheap marketing tricks.
