Thanks Al - I'd always wondered!
My housemate at the time was at Sun, and there was
much concern
that it would be a SPARC-killer (Apollo was Sun's major competition
up until HP killed off Apollo).
No idea why they're so rare and forgotten
about
They came out just before HP bought them, who proceeded to
bury it in favor of HP PA.
That's a real shame - from all I've heard (Which admittedly isn't much - DN10k
info is few and far between) they were pretty nice machines.
