Have people of Asian Indian decent favored their own at Redwood shores? What is the opinion out there? Thanks.

The crazy people that said that Oracle bought Sun just to shut it down and use the patents to sue Google are looking pretty non-crazy now. I guess once the lawsuit was lost (and boy was it expensive) the shutdown was inevitable.
