Sun's New Workstations and Graphics Cards

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the chasing-after-sgi dept.

An anonymous reader "Sun Microsystems has released the Sun Blade 2000 workstation, along with a new graphics accelerator, the XVR-1000. This could very well give SGI's lineup a run for its money in the CAD and Visualization fields, although its fillrate and 38-bit colour may make it less desirable for animation. Make sure to check out Ace's article. " (page down a couple times to read it)

    Stupid use for a $35k box I realize, but it does come with a DVD-ROM drive. Can you watch dvds with it or is that only for data-dvd purposes?
