Product Description

Using the new 1-GHz UltraSPARC IIIi processor, the price/performance-leading Sun Blade 1500 workstation offers high-performance 64-bit computing ideal for a wide range of business and technical environments. The Sun Blade 1500 workstation is equipped with a robust set of workstation features, including support for 4 GB of DDR memory, up to two internal 80-GB Ultra ATA100 hard drives, five PCI slots, and support for high-performance graphics such as the Sun XVR-100 or Sun XVR-600 graphics accelerators. The Sun Blade 1500 workstation also offers built-in USB 1.1, USB 2.0 and IEEE 1394a FireWire ports and on-board Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T).

With the industry-proven Solaris 8 Operating System pre-installed to maintain 100% binary compatibility with previous-generation workstations running Solaris applications, the Sun Blade 1500 workstation provides an ideal migration path for users of older generation systems (including the Sun Ultra 5, Ultra 10, Sun Blade 100, or Sun Blade 150 workstations) who require greater performance, more capabilities, and newer technologies at a very attractive price.
