VMware and SpringSource

I heard very surprising news today morning which is SpringSource has agreed to be acquired by VMware. http://blog.springsource.com/2009/08/10/springsource-chapter-two/ http://www.vmware.com/company/news/releases/springsource.html http://blogs.vmware.com/console/2009/08/vmware-acquires-springsource.html http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/vmware-to-acquire-springsource,921934.shtml Looks like a good deal for both companies. VMware recently hired Mark Lucovsky from Google and now has SpringSource. I guess VMware is really doing well.
