In a news.com article titled Sun execs boomerang back to old HQ we learn about the fact that Sun's execs have left their new Santa Clara campus and moved back to Menlo Park. No big deal. The entertaining part of the article is a few paragraphs into it.

Sun opened the Santa Clara campus in June 2000, after the Internet bubble had burst but before the resulting spending slowdown shrank the company's quarterly revenue by about 40 percent. The site, a former insane asylum, features a prominent clock tower that housed McNealy and other top executives.

That explains a lot, doesn't it?
