Sun is offering its customers the opportunity to buy three Sun FireTM X4600 M2 servers for the price of two. The Sun Fire X4600 M2 server features multi-core AMD Opteron processors, which offer the perfect balance between performance and energy efficiency, along with its record as the world's fastest of its kind on SPEC's new integer throughput benchmark. The offer is good through July 11, 2007.

The Sun Fire X4600 M2 is the industry's only x64 server expandable from 4–socket to 8–socket in a 4U chassis that's also upgradeable to the next generation of Opteron processors with 2.8GHz–dual–core–4DIMM. With these streamlined powerhouses in your datacenter, users can:

• Consolidate multiple application and database servers (as many as 42 x86 servers onto one) up to 21 times more efficiently than major competitors running SolarisTM Containers on the Sun Fire X4600 server

• Achieve 350 percent scalability from 2-socket to 8-socket when running VMware ESX with multiple workloads

• Consolidate up to forty–two x86 servers on each Sun Fire X4600 M2 server through virtualization

• Reduce total cost of ownership by up to 50 percent

• Have the modularity and flexibility necessary to accommodate current demands and future growth
