Yes, the TimeWarnerAOL cable company is stopping by my place tomorrow to install the Scientific Atlanta DVR/PVR. With no phone line connection - gets all of its data from the cable line, and can program from the Digital guide. And it just takes the place of my existing Digital Terminal thingy...:) As long as I can tell it to record every episode of Firefly, life is good.
Radio covered it this morning

I heard it this morning on Clear Channel or whatever they are calling their monopoly today... Scared me out of bed! The only thing I could think of was Brazil/1984 and how I want to emmigrate to someplace where freedoms are not being crushed every other day.
Actually, a 280 can only support 2 processors, currently the Ultra Sparc iii 750 or 900 MHz models. With 2 750s, 2 GB RAM, and 2x36 GB Disk, you are looking at about 12-14k.
If you want 4 CPU's, look at the E450/420. But if you are going to rip on using IDE drives, look at the new Sun Fire V100, it uses IDE drives as well.
You are correct, Unisys sells the es7000. It is a 32way Intel box with up to 64GB RAM. It is meant for server consolidation. I know some companies who have had Unisys in to demo the unit and help them migrate (consolidate) to it. I have not seen any actual results from this...

That is because those 30k of us just added one more tick mark to our FBI files.
