This is the first step of a long (upcoming) journey of Dell's AMD-powered PCs: http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/dimen_c521?c=uscs=19l=ens=dhs Perhaps someone at Sun will try to sell Mr. Michael the vision of Solaris-based business desktop s? But Solaris still doesn't

In the US I still often bump into people (including system adms) who will use nothing but Intel based CPUs. However, increasingly they seem to belong to a dying breed. (BTW incidentally, most of them only buy Dell computers.) Outside United States, the picture seems to brighten a lot (in

Any worries about new CPUs from Intel that are supposed to be more competitive on price, performance, low power than they have recently been compared to AMD? Does this mean Dell is canceling their unreleased AMD productline? ---Bob I don't know, but I am always suspicious
