Because there's no workstation hardware on sale anymore, and x86 performance is poo. and i don't fancy having to recompile many packages from source...

However i do want to run HP-UX.

HP still in charge of making the ugliest cases ever.
Every single HP computer looks like it was picked up for $0.99 somewhere.

Maybe their consumer systems, but I rather like their older workstations especially. HP always channeled their heritage as an instrument maker into their hardware and produced some pretty beautifully over-engineered kit.

The i2000 isn't their own design though, it's just a rebranded Intel reference box.
