What do you mean Sun was the first?
The US Army used 360/30 and 360/40s in 18-wheel trailers back in the
early 1960s - 40 years before Sun "thought" of the idea. The Army even
had those in Vietnam for the division data centers.
How big were those, compared to an iPod?
Let's put it this way: even Shrek could not have put it into a shirt
pocket like I can mine. These were full 18wheeler trailers - 30 foot or
maybe more?
