Thought this was interesting... sun seems to have done ok with these servers listed on Ebay... I wonder how the prices compared to what a reseller would have charged. I would guess they made more selling via auction. A cool $250,000 in just a few minutes... not bad...

>>." Have you forgotten that Sun is about to release a whole new generation of both software and hardware?<<

How unusual ct. A computer company updating their offerings!!

ct, remember the boy who cried wolff? One day their really was a wolff. you don't think there ever will be a wolff at the door, do you ct? <g>

>>If it's no problem to drop out of the pc business while still making servers, why do your ilk shriek so loudly as workstations become a less important piece of Sun's business?<<

I don't think this last point is as clear as you'd like ct. what are you getting at?
