The Sun Marketing team planned to stop work on the UltraSparcIIIi to focus on other servers which are making money. They want to focus on AMD based Servers which are have got better sales. After numerous lay-offs and product repositioning they still seem to be in Red.
The illustrious company which gave the Tech world numerous Firsts such a Solaris OS, Java and Applet technology just could not market the products right. Maybe Vinod Khosla who was one of the founders and MBA from Stanford could have given shape to the listless behaviour of Sun.
It has a linux strategy which actually appears to be conflicting with its Solaris OS based servers.
It also has AMD based servers which are in direct competition against its Sparc based processors.
Hope it stalls the redundancys.
