Ultra_III is significant and an outstanding execution. It will
give wintel team great pressure to deliver their promise. Merced
performance is not even near to ultra_III and one year late.
SUN gonna have tremendous advantage over wintel in high end server
market if ultra_III can go into production as scheduled. The
trend really reverse now, it used to be intel always comes out
first and everybody else comes from behind. Ultra_III seems to
be first next generation chip out there. But the production could
still be a concern and one working sample is not the whole story
yet.

[While analysts and competitors alike doubt Sun's ability to keep up the pace against the "Wintel" juggernaut, Sun executives say they have no choice. "What do the economics look like if I go with Intel?" Friedman asked. "Everyone sees their gross margins slide when they pay taxes to Intel and Microsoft." ]

Butt as I've said b4, Intel does not have a DSP chip. Texas Instruments developed their own. And JINI may use those DSP chips.
