Received the system, benchamraked it for a day and realized it did not
suit our needs.
We asked to upgrade to a V490 and CDW (the vendor) said it's up to Sun
to take the system back...and Sun said it does not take back servers
once the box is open (we also bought a 3-year GOLD Sun contract)

Needless to say, right now neither CDW nor Sun is on my list of
favorite companies to do business! That is NOT the way to keep
customers (happy or un-happy!)

System Configuration: Sun Microsystems sun4v Sun Fire T200
System clock frequency: 200 MHz
Memory size: 8184 Megabytes.

We paid 13K for the system, and 6K for the 3-yr gold maint. contract.

One wonders why you didn't take advantage of Sun's (highly publicised)
60-day free T2000 trial before handing over your shekels...
