Re: but this is a respectable result, takes the single-box crown convincingly, and at a cost per transaction which is half of the last result

Rudedog,

It's not as cut and dried as you make it sound.

Comparing a box you can buy today with one that isn't available for 6 months.

IBM has already stated the S80 will be getting a processor upgrade this fall.

If you want to compare apples to apples, it should be the S80 you can buy today vs. the E10000 you can buy today. Or both versions of the future server.
