Sun Microsystems Inc , the computer server maker that is being acquired by Oracle Corp , said on Tuesday it sees quarterly revenue falling short of Wall Street estimates, and a net loss.

Sun said it expects to report revenue in the range of $2.58 billion to $2.68 billion for the fourth quarter ended June 30 -- shy of analysts' view of $3.058 billion, according to Reuters Estimates. Sun posted revenue of $3.78 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.

Sun said it sees a net loss per share for the fourth quarter in the range of 24 to 34 cents a share. Excluding special items, it sees a loss of 6 to 16 cents a share.
