Google & Sunin software distribution pact to challenge Microsoft

Sun, Google in software distribution pact - Yahoo! News: Seems Google will be partnering up with Sun to help promote Sun's OpenOffice and Java software systems. The partnership will intensify the battle between Google and Microsoft as OpenOffice is potentially a serious challenger to MS Office if given the proper backing and marketing.

"Working with Google will make our technologies available more broadly, increase options for users, lower barriers, and expand participation worldwide," Scott McNealy, chief executive of Sun Microsystems said in a statement."
