How bad?
What I've heard is:
A) No one liked the change from 4 Intel Ethernet ports to 2 Intel and 2 Nvidia chipset ones.
B) Joyent's last straw was that Sun kept changing the management interface on them.
As of a few years ago Ben Rockwood was saying Dell's build quality was awful; did Sun's deteriorate as well? Dell's get better or perhaps became perceived to be good enough?
