I am currently running a number crunching application on a Sun 4/330.
I know this application's performance is predicted well by LINPAK
megaflops. I need faster execution and would appreciate suggestions
for Unix systems supported in New Zealand. Please let me know if you
can recommend a system in the following price ranges:
    NZ$ <= 25,000
    NZ$  > 25,000  and <= 50,000
    NZ$  > 50,000  and <= 100,000
    NZ$  > 100,000 and <= 150,000
RAM and Disk space requirements are moderate (8 Mb and 200 Mb beyond
standard system needs).
Please let me know the Mflop rating of the system because this will be the
major criterion for a selection.
