Microsoft to give its first JavaOne keynote

**MIG-31** · May 26, 2009, 02:14 PM

Here's a first: Microsoft will be giving a keynote address at the JavaOne conference in San Francisco next month.

Microsoft and Sun Microsystems have come a long way since their bitter split over Java in the late 1990s, but until now, Microsoft has never been on the big stage at Sun's annual developer conference.

No need to bear a grudge against a company that's pretty much about to go under.

Yeah no kidding. Technically its a good move on Microsoft's part if they want to "help out" Sun Microsystems if their financial situation deteriorates further.
