Hi,

I'm looking to replace my V880 and E450 and would like to know what is
comparable machine, if not better, than what I have and a rough cost
esitmate.

The new T5220:

64 GB RAM
8 x 146 GB HD
1.4GHz 8-Core CPU

Would be a killer system and use a fraction of the power.
Plus it's only 4 inches high so uses much less space as well.

With 8 threads per core it would look to the OS as if you have 64 CPUs.

If you set up zones in Solaris 10 it could probably replace both the E450
and the V880.
Sun may even give you a nice trade in on the old equipment if they have a
special going on.
