[edit] Double Speak
"I believe we should add to the article this man's incredible talent at double speak and empty marketing bull. He puts Microsoft to shame. There are many examples from his public appearances. He tries to sound cool and for good things, but underneath, he is a rotting corpse who only cares about the bottom line, and will manipulate in any manner possible to reach his goals.

You speak of Jonathan's talent at double speak and the many examples of said double-speak. Perhaps some should be cited here to back up your assertion?
I disagree with Holon67, Jonathan Schwartz support for startups has tangibly helped a few people I've worked with over the years, and I find Sun, under his leadership, to be three to five years ahead of their competition.
[edit] Participation Age
Why was the Wikipedia subject Particpation Age merged with Jonathan Schwartz? This makes no sense. The concept of the Participation Age, while officially coined by Jonathan, and part of Sun Microsystems' marketing message, is not part of Jonathan's identity. Note Cisco Systems has released a very similar marketing message, the Human network, and it does not redirect to John Chambers. Not only that, the founder of Wikipedia endorsed the concept of the Human network on Wikia.
