Dan - why do you keep making up this nonsense? You are so full of crap. Maybe you can post, for the thread's edification, the SparcStations and SparcServers you claim have some kind of CompactPCI special sauce.

You'll be a while digging up those references. Please try and show us the products from Sun which you can plug a CompactPCI device into...

Sun makes 2 variations on a single design (1400 and 1500)for a CompactPCI card - it is a dedicated embedded SPARC card. That's the upgrade to the older 1200. 2 more variations are the "Netra" versions of that embedded processor. Next clue - these don't plug into a Sun system - they plug into someone elses' system.

Although Sun had adapters for CompactPCI as far back as 1997, nobody noticed until they revved up the PR machine last summer - June 12th to be exact. see sun.com
"Sun Aims for Lead in the CompactPCI Revolution"

This announced that they had added a low cost card to their dedicated embedded card line - if you can call 2 products which are really one product with minor variations a "line". That's all - that's the whole Sun show on CompactPCI. Please don't start on Sun ethernet and ATM CompactPCI cards - they OEM them from Force.

Why don't you at least take a few minutes to see if Sun actually produces ANY of the products you are carping about before making a fool of yourself?
