Microsystems - editor mentions (1991 to 2010) |

Editor's comments:- once upon a time -
Sun had unique opportunities for exploiting
SSDs as I wrote in my
(2004) article
Why Sun Should
Acquire an SSD Company. Instead they did nothing for years (and many wrong
things in storage) and thereby missed an early opportunity to become a
leader in the SSD accelerated server business. Will Oracle do any better? There
will be an article about that soon...
SPARC
History - 1987 to 2010 - chronicles the rise and fall of the SPARC
server market viewed from my vantage point in it first as a Sun VAR in the
1980s (before SPARC), then as a SPARC oem in the SPARCstation 1 era, and, from
1991 as editor of the most influential buyers guide in the Sun hardware market
in the 1990s - the SPARC
Product Directory. |
