Sun's Model numbers... ultra 10 a poor excuse of usparc hardware in a PC format ultra 20 an opteron based workstation that is nice ultra 30 an usparc workstation, okay, but slower than the u20 and 10 years older ultra 40 an opteron based workstation really nice and fast ( now if you are thinking okay okay odd first digits are usparc and and even first digit are opteron, sun now does this) ultra 45 usparc workstation brand new then of course we run into history... ultra 60 usparc workstation ultra 80 usparc workstation okay explain the pattern.. anyone? i don't have a clue except to perpetuate "Sun's confusing array of processors" now should we discuss blade workstations, and blade servers to completely different things then we have galaxy servers known as X4100 and X4200 formually used X(numbers) as an order number for sun hardware. I think Sun's marketing deserves every comment they recieve like "Sun's confusing array of processors" at least they didn't muddy the water any more with the ultraT1 ... T1000 and T2000.
