I agree.
I have a p690 w/10CPU's for production.
P5nn for development.
These machines scream and just keep going. I won the argument *against* RAC
here when I told the group at a meeting that the server had been up for 275
days straight. I asked "What more do you expect to get from RAC?".
I won.

I second that. RAC´s job should be done by the hardware, it is not a software
job.
In the situation when multy-core systems are entering the market, CPU clock
speed seems to be reaching some limits - shouldn´t we expect multy-CPU boxes to
become a commodity?
BTW: we took 16CPU P5nn route. It just works.

Limited high availability, approximately equal to the one provided by cheap RAC
configurations can usually be provided by NUMA technologies.
What people don't understand is that Altix, Superdome or P595 can provide the
same or higher level of uptime as clustered Dell boxes with much, much better
and more predictable performance.
Unfortunately, NUMA is not such a buzzword as RAC.
