It might be worth considering Apple if you want a 64-bit chip that has a
clock speed comparable to Intel's - the Xserv is similarly priced to Sun

Stalin,
As anyone done benchmarking tests with postgres running on solaris and linux
(redhat) assuming both environment has similar hardware, memory, processing
speed etc. By reading few posts here, i can see linux would outperform
solaris cause linux being very good at kernel caching than
The hardware platform to deploy onto may well influence your choice :
Intel is usually the most cost effective , which means using Linux makes
sense in that case (anybody measured Pg performance on Solaris/Intel?).
If however, you are going to run a very big in some sense database,
then 64
