The SunFire T2000 server uses the revolutionary UltraSPARC T1 processor. This processor is ideal for environments with:-
a) Multi-threaded applications or multiple (smallish) single threaded applications ie. an environment that results in lots of threads
b) Low requirement for floating point
So, would be suit a SunRay environment? Well, YES. But, and of course there is a 'but', not if you also use the Sun Ray server to serve up/run applications that are floating point intensive. That's just a small caveat - in the main the SunFire T2000 with UltraSPARC T1 is ideal as a SunRay server.
Sun have a T2000 Try and Buy Program which would allow you to try out a T2000 server and return it if it doesn't live up to your expectations: http://www.sun.com/emrkt/trycoolthreads/index.html

Q. Is the T2000 a good candidate for a SunRay server? It seems to me the MultiThreading of the T2000 CPU would be ideal for this, do you agree?
