   Definitely cool about the uptime, but as I have no experience on systems like this, I'm also curious about the economics of this as a business strategy.

   How do the maintenance, development, and operations costs of a system like this compare to - for sake of argument - a typical line-of-business Java system running on commodity servers you own in a DC somewhere?

   Can anyone with experience in both comment?

      Stratus 'servers' were originally 'super minis' - 19" racks full of gear with multi-million dollar price tags - looking at the picture in the article, I was surprised to see what look liked racks of desktops ?
