I'm not sure that we want to limit the Solaris target in that way; we want laptops, small embedded systems as well as big iron. The more systems Solaris runs on the bigger the eco system. If it means no high thruput ZFS, then that is fine with me and certainly I would not prioritize this. And we don't want "1U" systems; we want mini-ITX, nearly silent systems which can fit in cars or which can be easily hidden away. The price is not the objection; it's the form factor.
