I see this as a good thing for IBM. I work at Texas Instruments as a systems analyst. TI uses Sun servers in their labs using Solaris. I think it would be great to get rid of those machines and have some IBM quality programs to work with. I dont much care for the Sun machines.
Also, Sun does own some of my favorite software that IBM could stand to own.
OpenOffice
Java
VirtualBox
etc...
I say to IBM... GO FOR IT.
