Answer
The premier general-purpose microprocessor designs in the computer industry today
The only open-source 64-bit processors in the world
The only open-source Chip Multi-Threaded (CMT) processors in the world
Modern, real (not "toy") designs - OpenSPARC can boot real
off-the-shelf commercial operating systems (e.g.Solaris, Linux,
FreeBSD, OpenBSD) and run off-the-shelf application software
Backed by a growing open-source community (OpenSPARC.net)
