摘要

Sun Microsystems is in trouble. The vendor of large, costly computers was caught off guard as the economy chilled and customers fled to cheap alternatives such as personal computers. In late September Sun warned that it would lose 7 to 10 cents a share in the fiscal first quarter (those results are due in mid-October); at $3.22, the stock is off 95% from its 2000 high. To save itself, Sun is trying a variety of strategies, from selling boxes with chips made by Intel and AMD to slashing prices. But the ultimate rescue may come from a big, daring technology play, now consuming the talents of 1,300 of Sun's 1,600 chip engineers. Gregory Papadopoulos, Sun's chief technology officer, calls the new approach to microprocessor design "throughput computing." It's a way to break open the memory bottleneck inside a computer.
