for several years Sun showed Cray boxes in their booth at financial market shows, i think i remember seing them as early as 93'. has Sun made heros of a lot of financial MIS folks with this product?

I have been told that the UE1000 product is selling like hotcakes. Something like over 1,000 boxes sold as of a few months ago and no end in sight. They are definitely a hot box and has given Sun a whole new market.

Sun just recently announecd new #1 TPC numbers (though only for the UE6000), something like 52K TPC-C/sec for about $7mil with 44 processors. SGI needs to get their butt in gear and get a 64-cpu or 96-cpu number on the chart. There current entry is only 25K TPC-C/sec for $3.5mil. SGI needs to sell their "scalability" story here.
