Great comic... but if you went on the Matrix at the end alone, it 
doesn't do enough to make the Blade stand out as the winner.  I'd never 
select Dell machines over Suns, however, they make the Dell look better 
at 80% of the items available and then try to argue a floating point 
benchmark that's only slightly better while the integer performance 
sucks comparatively.  A big nono would be the 1 year versus 3 year 
warranty... if they want to compete they need to change it to a 5 year 
warranty.  Also, HP's cache sizes seem a lot nicer on instruction and 
data... aren't these the faster caches?
