actually, that’s not the same one — that’s Sun’s take on the concept!
Apparently Google *do* have a project to do something similar, but details have been kept relatively secret. I think Sun intend to flog this “Project Black Box” though…
According to this Sun have spent a couple of years working on this. I wonder did Google just leak some info before they had something ready to beat Sun to the news punch and make it look like Sun simply copied them?
