Is Rock dead?

Sun killing 'Rock' Sparc chip?

Sunの公式回答が "no comment re: Rock," ってことは、そういうことなんだろうか?

「SunがサーバプロセッサRockの開発打ち切り」の報道

ネタ元は New York Times だったようで。どうやら本当っぽい。

Next week Sun was to present a paper at the International Symposium on Computer Architecture:
"Simultaneous Speculative Threading: A Novel Pipeline Architecture Implemented in Sun's ROCK Processor"
See: http://isca09.cs.columbia.edu/papers.html

this is weird - sun just scheduled a presentation of rock in hamburg, supposedly live hardware will be demoed:

さて。
