It is the next generation following the UltraSPARC T1 and T2 series. This is not true. The T2 is going to be available concurrently with the Rock, and targets quite different workloads. Actually, most of the information on this page is wrong. The Rock is expected to debut with 16 cores (not four) per chip. David Chisnall 00:00, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Also

There is no citation for this: "Each Rock processor chip includes sixteen cores, with each core capable of running two threads simultaneously, yielding 32 threads per chip"

The "two threads" part especially needs a citation—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.7.147.153 (talkcontribs) 20:46, August 9, 2007
