Bill, cool, take a look at this thread I sparked up a while back... maybe it wasn't too far off the mark ... it's good for a laugh irregardless:

Subject 29641

I completely agree with your commodity theory; I've touted it on the SUNW thread. Price/performance of x86 is ideal and they are encroaching on the "big-iron" space with 4-8 way systems. As we migrate to true distributed architecture applications (not necessarily clustered) it makes more sense to spread business risk across N boxes that tie it all up in one or two big-ass servers ; a.k.a. EBAY. Ironically, Sun's Java is the ideal language for building these distributed apps.

Cheers
James
