We are going with the 90nm HPs for production. They "feel" like
beefier boxes than the Suns, but the Suns cost a LOT less, IIRC.
We're only using the internal drives for the OS. PG gets access to a
fibre-channel array, HP StorageWorks 3000. I _can't wait_ to get this
in.
Our dev box is a 130nm DL585 with 16G of RAM and an HP SCSI array, and
I have absolutely zero complaints. :)
