Sun Moves Closer to Intel, Sparcs Fly at AMD

I've got to tell you, I don't think this new alliance between Sun Microsystems and Intel is a very big deal -- unless you are an AMD shareholder! Sun has already had success selling Intel-compatible AMD-powered servers. Now it will just sell Intel-compatible Intel-powered servers. Big whoop.

What kind of servers do you prefer, AMD or Intel-based, and why? Tell us all at [email protected].
