Pixar uses 1,000 Sun stations

" Pixar is very dependent on Sun hardware for production,
according to comments in the annual report by Steve Jobs on the company's computer infrastructure ... :

"We dramatically expanded our computer infrastructure,
adding the latest server, storage networking and backup systems.

Our RenderFarm now uses over 1,000 of Sun's fastest processors; we have 5 terabytes (a terabyte is 1,000 gigabytes) of disk storage to hold our production data; and data now races through our studio over a gigabit network.
All our work is backed-up nightly, and copies are moved off-site, just in case.

It's one of the most impressive computer facilities around."


Mr Jobs should hire a mature , marketing savy CEO for AAPL .
