[rescue] intel vs. sun- for real

I have a SPARC5 that runs the newest version of Solaris. (I think it'll
run 9; I haven't tried it tho.) This hardware is what, 10 years old?
Find me an Intel box 10 years old that'll run XP.

I think whatever extra money is required to get a Sun is obviously worth
it in the long run.

> So, my girlfriend is being forced to give hard evidence why a single or dual cpu UltraSparc would be more advantageuous to purchase than an intel box. Performance, reliability, anything.
