back to article Sun stuffs bigger kit in Backbox

Sun's containerised Blackbox data centres can now have larger data centre servers and storage installed at the expense of losing one standard rack.

    Slow news day?

    What's next for the Sun Advertising Section?

Hardly Earth-shaking news!

    Matt,

    How much is IBM paying you to constantly bash Sun? Sure, this article doesn't say much, but that's not exclusive to Sun.

    Really, I want to know so I can earn some extra income.

    Bill because he has all the money he needs.

    Never mind Matt dude, he's a troll. He once claimed to offer hardcore technical insight along with this posts and blah blah, but I'll say it again; he's about as trollish as Webster Phreaky. Just less entertaining :-)

    Oh, and nice news about Blackbox BTW, thank you Reg.

    Sun is DOA and a $1 and change stock

    Dude,

    Keep up with the blogs. Matt is an HP fanboy. Anyone that compares Sun's offering which has been a dismal failure to HP and IBM offerings will conclude that Sun cannot afford to improve their prototype. One of the few customers they have (a Russian Telco) is dumping them for someone else.

    @Matt

    Matt - are you an IBM marketing droid? Or didn't Sun want to employ you in the recent past? You're Sun attacks are becoming boring - maybe you can do some work for a change and tell us who the leader in the (yawn) "containerised IT" market is.

    @Anonymous Coward - are you Matt in drag?

    Paris because she is al about marketing.
