@Keith - Edited 4.
Is that spec Score

http://www.sun.com/desktop/workstation/w1100z/CFP2000.005.html

of 1787

the highest published result for an 150 Opti yet?

Edit:
Seems like SPECfp_rate2000 = 39.6 is again the highest Opti
250 score up-to-date. When wrong, just post it.

Edit2:
DAMN - look at this 4P Opti 850 score!
SPECfp_rate2000 = 70.0

Edit3:
Seems like the Opteron family gets some new life from a base
point, which is already way above competition - I love THAT. ;-)

Edit4:
Aren't these enough reasons to tank AMD into single digit
region?

Did you guys try to price a 40z? Adding a 2nd Opteron 244 to the entry level 40z costs over $4K. Is Sun insane?
