Summary

In this conversation, Ray Rothrock, former Director of CAD/CAM Marketing at Sun Microsystems, discusses his time at Sun and how the Internet has evolved. He highlights the importance of trust as a principle, the growth of Sun in sales and marketing, and gives an interesting demo to Vice President Bush back in the Reagan administration. Rothrock also talks about the influence of open standards on the explosion of everything else we've seen with the internet today. He mentions how Sun was an enabler for companies with cool ideas for products and software to use Sun as the underpinning, much like Cloudflare does now.
