   I was just trying to get some relative performance numbers out of Sun in
order to size a few servers, and they wouldn't really give me anything but
spec.org numbers for the bare CPUs. If you offer a veiled threat of going over
to another vendor's hardware you might spook them into telling you something,
but I woudn't hold my breath.
