i believe workstations are certified for certain specific applications and that partly accounts for the price premium. ofcourse, the hardware costs more too for example ECC memory costs more.

i think ix systems are counting on dedicated BSD users to buy the systems who want a quality system that has BSD supported hardware and don't mind the price.
but are there any commercial workstation apps that run on BSD?
