For desktop usage, I can't imagine you can get any SPARC workstation to outperform a Ultra 27 Nehalem system. It's not a fair comparison since there hasn't been a new SPARC workstation model in years, so you're stuck comparing a 1.2Ghz UltraSPARC IIIi with a 8-way 3.0 Ghz Intel Core i7, but my Ultra 27 absolutely blows away my Sun Blade 2500. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
