JC - let's see, MSFT replaces a 64 processor SUNW box with 4-way or even 8-way Intel boxes - and they need 4 times as many.... no surprise there, still twice as efficient on a per-processor basis, and probably 30% of the cost... <GG>

BTW, congratulations on SUNW's TPC results - the new single-box performance king, with a cost per transaction below the IBM S80... really fine work.
