Hi,
Thank you all for suggesting a Sun machine that is roughly equivalent (or at
least is intended to be in a similar class) to a DS20E.
The answers were:
- 220R: dual cpu, upto 2G of ram, dual power supplies
- 250 (or 220R for the rack mounted version)
- 250 has Dual processor capabilities at 300MHz or 400MHz
-280R (new model)
- 420R (quad capable)
- E420R
- 450 or 3500 with 4 cpus
- E450 W/450mhz Cpu. Mod.X2, (2 cpu's). 2 gb Mem
Some Editorial comments:
- Although there is a lack in speed compared to the DS20E the price remains
very similar.
- good luck finding something as powerful as a DS20E =)
I haven't looked into any of these machines yet (I may still ask that we
pursue a DS20).
- somebody also pointed out a web site called www.spec.org that has a lot of
specification information
Thanks again,
Andy
