:( Of course if the prices/availability in the TPC-C are just made up as well then the whole thing becomes even more fantastically meaningless. the arketing pitch to those who buy this stuff would have to be rewritten slightly
"If you bought a system that isn't available at prices that you can't negotiate with the vendors and run an app you can't buy on hardware that isn't redundant then you too could generate a figure of 2.5 purchase orders/groat "
My understanding though was that the whole point of the full disclosure was to list hardware and software accurately, and lets face it the end of the year as an availability date for 10G doesn't seem unreasonable.
