Just for the record, I really love Sun servers. I have an 8-way 4600 running ESX 3.0.1 here in my lab and it smokes! I also think that Solaris is a great OS.

I know my last post seemed a little “anti-Sun”. I just found that HP article interesting. However, it’s nothing new in the industry to flip-flop. Technology moves fast and business has to move with it. This is especially for companies that sell technologies.

Therefore, I open the doors to all competitive papers! HP, IBM, Dell, & Sun, send me your competitive FUD… err, marketing material for all to read.

I’ve also decided to take a poll.  Who makes the best x86 based server?  Dell, HP, IBM, or SUN.   Vote now!
