Proprietary/Confidential – Sun Employees and Authorized Partners Only Sun Fire™ V250 Server Positioning Introduction Sun continues to build on its reputation for developing secure and reliable solutions with the introduction of the Sun Fire V250, a two-processor tower server. The tower server market represents a large share of the overall server market despite the growing popularity of rack-optimized and blade server products. According to the IDC worldwide quarterly server forecast (September, 2002), the two-processor tower server (with $7.2 billion in annual revenues in 2002) represents about 54% of overall two processor server market revenue. Further, the two-processor tower server market is expected to grow by approximately 25% between 2002 and 2006 in terms of units sold. The Sun Fire V250
