It was just a few short weeks ago that I said goodbye to the Sun T2000 I'd had on the Try and Buy program from Sun.

Unfortunately it didn't quite fit my needs, but my contact at Sun's PR firm offered me the chance to take a closer look at the T1000. I'll talk about the T1000 specifics in a post later this week, but the key focus for this beast is on a high-density processing platform, rather than the server platform approach of the T2000.

This time round I'm going to be looking at some slightly different performance and other metrics, along with those I conducted for Cheffy and elsewhere.
