here's a nice quip from the same article...Now i guess trying to get NT to scale on a 4 cpu box and writing code on a emulator for a non-existant and dead on arrival chip would have been a good use of time over the last couple of years - kept HP and Compaq busy.. but I guess Sun was more interested in building the plumbing for the little thing known as the Internet.

it's nothing happening for Merced. It's like one big dress-up for a party that never happened."
