I guess the fact that T4s are shipping now doesn't do a
damn thing to dispel these types of statements. This gets really,
really old. But either way, Core i7s might be considered "classic"
soon too, with all the server manufacturers gearing up to produce
ARM-based *servers*. -Dave
Sure they are shipping but, Oracle's hardware sales are way down.

isn't helping turn anything around. Hardware sales have gone down since

This is true. But sales of *everything* are down.
And more importantly, my customers want SPARC, and I can still get
them...and now I can once again get a good OS for them that I can
support. That's all I'm worried about.
