Sun Microsystems' profits were down 73% last quarter, and the company isn't expecting to turn a profit at all this quarter. This week, the SearchITChannel.com staff talks about how Sun Microsystems' profits affect the channel, and how Sun partners are reacting to the disappointing news. There's also a discussion on AT&T's new cloud computing initiative, and whether "cloud" is the new "ASP" in the telecommunications market.
