Also what many keep forgeting is that Oracle was with Sun on Java since the early days, they were even the first RDMS to support Java for stored procedures and designed the Network Computer with JavaOS together with Sun.
From my point of view, Google chose not to buy Sun because they hoped that Sun would just burn to the ground and as such, they would get away with the way they approached the whole situation.
On the other hand if Google had bought Sun, we would still most likely be stuck with Java 6 and just runtime improvements, if at all. If Go and Dart are any examples to go for.
