Default Dell blades or SUN Blades

Hi,

First of all I have to disagree with Schumie, I have seen banks where they were able to fully load the rack with blades. So I believer you really can save on space and power with blades, though I am still curious which vendor to go with. As of our company budget we only can afford SUN or Dell Blades. As far the comparisons I had seen on the web it seems Dell is making a better blade than SUN. The best detailed comparison I had found so far was

SUN blade server vs Dell Blade Server

Though as this is going to be a quite big investment for our company I would like to make sure I take the best decision on it. If you really can help me on choosing the best one of the two I would really appreciate it. Please let me know which one you think is better & why.

Thanks for your help in advance.
