OK - One reply - We tested our sun Ultra 170's against whatever HP had
equivalent at the time about 4 years ago.
We ran the CAD software faster so HP said "whoa - you must have something
set up wrong" - Their tech rep flew out, played with the thing for about 5
hours, eventually broke it so it couldn't boot.  Took off for the plane and
said "I guess box it up and send it back".
Yeah - You go get that HPUX box, I won't get in the way.
