The Sparc has been a superior processor to AMD for quite some time..

Amd is working on their quad core, and sun has an eight core out already! Sparcs were always ahead of their time..

Maybe in the server environment, but for statistics and bioinformatics the Opteron is far superior.

What's the difference between Sparc and AMD--is Sparc a completely different architecture than the x86?
