Sun Germany Chef Marcel Schneider Turns Coat

Microsoft Germany announced on July 2nd that Marcel Schneider will defect from Sun Microsystems and go to work for Microsoft.

Schneider is currently executive director and vice president at Sun Microsystems GmbH and will join the executive board.

I read the press release and honestly find what he says about Microsoft while still being an employee of Sun very interesting.

From the press release

Microsoft ist das spannendste Unternehmen in unserer Branche. Niemand ist nach meiner Beobachtung besser aufgestellt als Microsoft, um Unternehmen leistungsfähige, zuverlässige und sichere IT-Lösungen anzubieten

Translated:

Microsoft is the most exciting enterprise in our industry. Nobody is better set up after my observation than Microsoft, in order to offer to enterprises efficient, reliable and safe IT solutions.

God that about makes me want to throw up! That kind of comment is better said after you have started working for your new company, not while still working for the old. I think it's totally bad form.

And what does Sun Microsystems GmbH think of Mr. Schneiders departure?

....

Yep, no press release, nothing, not a word from Sun, I couldn't find anything anywhere even somewhat official that anything occured. Is it possible that Mr. Schneider caught Sun with proverbial pants down?
