Paul,

The problem Intel keeps ignoring wrt to Sun is that they have an enterprise class OS and applications available today and an entire IT/Engr. community supporting an existing infrastructure running Solaris.

As an Intel manager said the other day, "IT departments don't care if it's Intel inside, they have applications to run".

HP and HPUX 11.0i is Intel's only hope in this space, unless MSFT has some solution I'm unware of. I keep hearing Intel say bad things about Sun, but get real - why would Sun enable it's biggest competitor HP by porting their OS to HP's RISC chips aka Itanium.
