Sun? How much spice-level simulation does Sun/Oracle do?
I'd ask what sort of simulations these folks are doing -- is it just top-level timing verification?
Did the panelists' companies switch to the best simulator, per their evaluation, or was the decision made to use a different simulator from the EDA vendor with whom the company already had a volume purchase agreement or whose simulator was already integrated in the flow? (Netlists and model libraries are different, though vendor X claims to read vendor Y's format, they may not guarantee 100% compatibility.)
