Sun Fire T2000 Server Try Before You Buy
What a great idea – fill out the form and you get one of Sun’s ‘eco friendly’ servers to play with for a couple of months. Good write up on the strategy from Jonathan Schwartzhere.
Bloody hell, write a decent review and you might get to keep it!
Excellent strategy, and really interesting sounding product. It’s interesting to see power consumption play a significant part in the pitch of a technical product, that traditionally gets marketed on speed. Hmm, Apple’s new powerbook (er, sorry Mac Book Pro) had a similar explanation (performance per watt)…does this signify the slowing of Moore’s Law?
