9: Well, its not this: News: "Expected to deliver three times the performance of commodity systems with eight Intel Pentium III Xeon processors" go2net.newsalert.com Unisys Sets New Price/Performance Standard with Family of Scalable, High-Performance E-Business Servers Business Wire - October 27, 1999 10:27 NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 27, 1999-- At as little as one-fifth the price, new Intel-based mainframes eclipse high-end UNIX/RISC servers through Unisys Cellular MultiProcessing (CMP) architecture Signaling a fundamental shift in the economics of large-scale computing for electronic business, Unisys Corporation today launched the Unisys e-@ction Enterprise Server ES7000, a family of servers based on the revolutionary Cellular MultiProcessing (CMP) architecture. The Unisys e-@ction Enterprise Server ES7000 is positioned to eclipse the industry's best UNIX/RISC-based server as a large-scale electronic business computing engine. Matching the performance of high-end UNIX/RISC systems at a fraction of the price, the new servers remove the last barriers to using Microsoft and Intel technology as the foundation for global, high-volume electronic business computing. Expected to deliver three times the performance of commodity systems with eight Intel Pentium III Xeon processors, the Unisys e-@ction Enterprise Server ES7000 systems address tasks requiring the power, uninterrupted availability and ease of administration once available only on large UNIX/RISC systems or mainframes. ________________________________________________________ It could be that the IBM downgrades based on the "lock down" fears have spilled over to unisys. If a company or agency has spend a substancial amout by now to "remediate" "y2k" problems, the IT budget might be frozen until about 3 weeks after dec 31. This would of course, spill over to UIS, no matter how inappropriate. Duke
