Scott McNealy on the [next] evil empire

19 Nov 2001It really is mankind against Microsoft. ...we're the ones wearing the white hat. [1]
22 Mar 2003This is mankind vs. Microsoft. And we’re winning. [2]
16 Sept 2003It's been Java Web services versus .NET--and mankind won. It's over. Java Web services is the platform. [3]
6 Oct 2004Microsoft needed a partner, their customers wanted choice. One is an unstable molecule. Who else are they going to choose as their second source? You know, Sun and Microsoft aren't that competitive. We don't do MSN, we don't do Xbox, we don't do applications. They don't do computers, storage or infrastructure. They weren't going to do it with Larry (Oracle). They weren't going to do it with IBM. They can't stand IBM. They at least respect us. They really don't like IBM. And they hate the GPL. [4]
5 Feb 2005It is humankind versus IBM Global Services, and we are kind of the leader of mankind in this aspect. [5]
