rudedog,

Maybe you don't know how to read, or maybe you don't like what
it is you're reading... The article re: J. Crew is a common
example of how Solaris is beating the shit out of NT in the
enterprise marketplace. You can spin it any way you want, but
the sum total of performance, price, reliability, and brand
are there for you to read in black-and-white. I didn't make
it up, it's hard evidence of SUNW's superiority.

Since you concede that SUNW's 450 is a better machine than
anything in the PC market, you fall back on the arguement that
CPQ is selling so many units compared to the 450 that quality
doesn't matter. So, wiseguy, how many of CPQ's unit sales
were for their "inexpensive" Proliant's that somehow cost more
than $30,000 a pop (NOT including software). Futhermore, how
many were in direct competition with the 450?? The 450 and
low cost Ultras were introduced to the market last November
and, so far, have been back-ordered.

Since your head seems to be as thick as mozek's, I'll say it
again: hardware is NOT the battleground of the future, it's
software and support that are the key & SUNW wins hands down.
They've been doing it longer and have a better track record
than ANY PC vendor, especially in enterprise computing.

BTW, my posts have contained references to news articles
that constitute hard evidence of my claims. All I get from
you is your opinion & unsubstantiated claims about sales
figures etc. Instead of using your big mouth, why don't you
show some hard evidence of your claims for a change. If you
don't I'm going to stop replying to your posts.
