Re: SparkFun being hassled by SPARC and Sun

SparkFun is an awesome company, with a whole host of awesome products.

I've been a satisfied customer of theirs for years for FRC and various personal projects.

If by "work out a deal", you mean SparkFun telling SPARC to shove it, then yes, it'll all work out.

This is a classic case of corporate bullying, of the big guy bullying lunch money from the smaller kid on the playground, not unlike the film Flash of Genius.
