Sun Unveils 64-bit Server Line

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Monday September 12, 2005 @05:34AM from the long-overdue dept.

SumDog is one of many to let us know, PC World is reporting that Sun is expected to reveal the first few of their new 64-bit servers at their quarterly product rollout. From the article: "Formerly code-named Galaxy, the Sun Fire X2100, X4100, and X4200 servers represent the company's bid to woo customers, particularly the financial industry sector, away from rival server vendors Hewlett-Packard and Dell."

Most Fortune 500 companies use IIS webservers - running Solaris 10, or porting linux or BSD to these machines will probably continue to be the reason Sun loses market share to HP or Dell. Companies will continue to buy servers with MS OS's on them in greater quantities, don't you think?
