I'm really sorry to start this thread again but I found something very
interesting I thought everyone should ^at least^ have a look at:
http://uadmin.blogspot.com/2005/06/4-dual-xeon-vs-e4500.html
This article takes into account a comparision of 4 dual xeon vs. e4500.
The author (not me!) talks about "A Shootout Between Sun E4500 and a
Linux Redhat3.0 AS Cluster Using Oracle10g [the cluster walks away limping]"
Warm Regards,
