Why put up with speculation? If you can convince your Sun salesman that
you really need the info now to make purchasing decisions he will usually
be happy to organise a presentation of soon to be announced products under
a non-disclosure agreement.

The guy who our salesman brought along last week to do the presentation
here is doing about 7 presentations a week at the moment.

There are product announcements due in April, but nothing before then as
