Milo, Re: Blades/Symmetric Computer Processing vs SMP and SMT. Yes, this is just the continuation of the trend in computing -- symplification of the hardware for the sake of performance/cost while emphasizing the software/control systems. It's really goofy to add CPUs to server PCs in an attempt to drive performence when each added CPU brings in less than 66% of the previous one in performance terms. Much more productive(though for now more difficult) to just add PCs to the server. That's what blade is about. Just part of the trend. tgptndr
