UltraSPARC T2 Plus: try it yourself on Web, Appl, & Database

Monday Apr 14, 2008

In the last week this blog had talked a lot about the great performance of the SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 servers.

But forget the leading performance, price/performance, watt/perf results, if you want to try it for yourself you can. Sun continues its try-and-buy program and extends it to the new Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 servers.

Free 60-day trial program. You pay nothing (Sun even pays the shipping), for details see: http://www.sun.com/tryandbuy/index.jsp (scroll down to find T5240/T5140)

Reminder: Summary of technical index of CMT blogs @ Allan Packer's blog:

I've had several talks with friends at different competitors, and they said they didn't think Sun had it in it to really make a breakthrough in performance, price, and power -- but now they all talk about high-level meetings in their companies (competitors) who are frantically trying to figure out how to counter Sun's offering.

Sounds like your friends at different competitors are violating their confidentiality agreements :)
