And it'll be just as slow as the last generation, or the generation before that.

I hate our Sun crap. Why do designers need a $15,000 workstation when we could get the same thing on x86 for 1/5 the price.

too bad dell doesn't make RPGs. Then all you'd have to do is format it, get all the drivers, point and shoot.

Because their $150 keyboards say "Sun" on them.

I guess Sun is getting desparate. They will not even be in business much longer. All their good people jumped ship becuase they know Sun's days are numbered.

Cool! When I was in the business, we charged around 350 per commercial job if we could get it done in an hour. larger jobs were bid out.
