Yuri Gurevich from Microsoft Research [1] gave a very erudite and somewhat interesting Google Tech Talk on the Church-Turing thesis today.

Sun changed its stock ticker from SUNW to JAVA. Java is undisputedly popular as this article expostulates. Of course, there is the added advantage of investors buying JAVA, thinking its Starbucks Stock.
GNOME was renamed to Java Desktop System. Sun Cluster to Java Availability Suite. All this, despite the fact that these products had nothing to do with Java. Going by the trend, “Java Microsystems” is very much on the cards. Maybe go one better and rename DTrace to Java Tracing Framework and ZFS to The Java Filesystem.
