I think the simple answer is that the Ultra 5 and 10 failed to displace a
significant number of desktop PCs as Sun had hoped...

Not to say they were failures, but Ingram Micro supplies PC stores/large
companies - I suspect that most foilks that wanted Sun Ultra 5 and 10 tended
to call their local Sun rep, not Ingram...

Just a thought,

Ken
