Sun Cancels UltraSPARC IIIi+

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the belated-goodbyes dept.

Doctor Memory writes "El Reg is reporting that Sun has finally come clean and admitted that they have killed the UltraSPARC IIIi+ chip. According to John Fowler, Sun's server chief, 'We canceled it last fiscal year to focus on the ramp (up) of UltraSPARC IV+, Niagara and Niagara 2.' Sun has had great success with its new Niagara line, and with it's line of AMD-based systems."

    "Its" is possessive. I know it's no big deal but I just couldn't resist reminding everyone that virtually every story posted here is written sloppily and goes entirely unedited these days. =/
