My favorite platform so far is still Sun. We have a couple of heavily loaded
Sun servers and never had any problems after 5 years. The fibre optic card
did go crazy once though. Other than that everything was smooth. One thing I
like about Sun is that they are very innovative and focused on UNIX. HP on
the other hand also sells Windows systems and a host of other products, and
is now in the middle of merger and Itanium migration. Its future is quite
unclear. From my own experience, the quality of their PC service has
definitely gone downhill. We just have to see what happens on the server
side.
