Major chalkboard points noted:

1. Dropping AMD servers for Intel-based servers.
2. Upscaling SPARC server roadmap to 128 cores and 64TB of memory by Y2015.
3. Solaris 11 will ship next year - Y2011.
4. Merge of Sun's Ops Center system management software and Oracle's Enterprise \
Manager software into a single product by Y2012. 5.  Ultrasparc T3 processor

"To be the #1 enterprise OS in Y2011, you'll release something superior than what \
already exists in Y2010..."
