Hi,

We had two SunBlade 1000s delivered a couple of weeks ago, one failed last
week (panics, crash dumps, multiple reboots), went through the full "patch
it up to within an inch of its life", no joy. Sun field engineer fixing it
as I type, has brought new motherboard, memory and cpu. We have also had 6
out of 8 Ultar10s fail whilst still under warranty. Problem with Sun build
standards, perhaps?
