ZDnet wrote a nice review about the Sun Fire X4450:

For raw power this is the gutsiest server we have seen. The benchmark results are the best we have seen in high end servers — particularly the Sungard score — although we cannot claim to have tested such a machine with specs quite like this before.

But the best part of the article is a different one:

Too often we look inside a server and think, "what a mess!" Strange air flow and cable routing is common — but not so with the X4450. There is hardly a cable in sight and airflow is straight as an arrow from front to back.

Dear God, it's almost like the people at ZDNet don't know prtconf exists. How hard would "prtconf |grep Memory" to get the memory size be?

They don´t seem to have much experience with this class of machine ....
