Right, Blade 1000/2000 are end-of-life.
But you can buy those workstations as "refurbished" from SUN, so the workstations are in a really good condition, but the price is also SUN-like.
I think its a matter of the main applications you want to run on the workstation.
3D will be much faster on the Blade 2500 while lot of number chrunching "should"
be faster on the UltraSPARC III based workstations.
