Reliability, Reliability, Reliability

Perhaps IBM could do something to make Sun's customers happy !?
Sun customer: "nah nah we don't want an old AS/400."
IBM Sales Rep: "ok we understand how you feel.  But how about one of these
new bright and shiny I/500's !!"

MORE USERS AFFECTED by a long-standing cache memory
problem on Sun Microsystems's Ultra Enterprise servers
are slamming Sun's handling of the issue and its
attempt to keep users quiet about it.

Since Computerworld first reported the problem last
week, additional users have come forward to recount
similar experiences. Topping their list of complaints
are the frequency of server crashes caused by the
problem, fixes that don't work, and Sun's tendency to
initially blame the problem on other factors before
acknowledging it as their problem -- often only
under an NDA (nondisclosure agreement).
