Sun Versus Ping: An Epic Battle

Thursday Jan 24, 2008

[Trackback] Last week, a Sun blogger posted Sun versus Ping: An Epic Battle and included a video. The video is cute for about 30 seconds, then goes on to kick the dead horse to a fine paste. (seriously, it would’ve been funnier shorter) The Ping folks couldn...
