Not sure if this is news or not...
G0177325, (interesting name!)
News is told in words, and puzzles are made of pieces. Of course this is news! It's just a small piece of a bigger story.
I believe that the big puzzle (Continued...)

A quick thought.
The main reason price cuts happen is because new faster chips come in & push everything else down.
So, if there aren't any price cuts until October, then there will probably not be any new NW CPU speeds until (Continued...)

From Microsoft: I see their support much in the way I saw support for powerPC and alpha. I think that x86-64 has a long road ahead. Anyone can pledge support, Microsoft has done it many times before. Actually getting it is going to be the trick. (Continued...)

I think that a lot of people are buying in too heavily on these inflated model numbers
Beetred,
Here's something for you to consider. Who's buying this Hammer talk? End consumers who don't know any facts? OK, they're worth (Continued...)

DY,
I think you got the general idea of my post, but then in some of the make-believe #'s, you were WAY off.
You said: 1P -> 2GHz SH = 3GHz Xeon 2P -> 2GHz SH = 3.4GHz Xeon 4P -> 2GHz SH = 3.8GHz Xeon 8P -> (Continued...)

I've heard it that AMD could hit 4000+ in Q1 03. I didn't think it sounded right, seems ridiculously aggressive. I wonder if I could build my own beach with the bags of sand that AMD is dishing out on Hammer... (Continued...)

The 2 Processor Hammer with 16 GB should only cost about $10K (assuming 2K for Memory, 2K for Motherboard and 6K for 2 Processors, not including Disks in any of these comparisons). I wouldn't buy this because it has the same power as the old one. (Continued...)

I said: Oh, and move this up to a 4P configuration. You have 32 potential memory slots, for 32 GB of memory capacity today! 64 GB next year, maybe even 128 GB. That's what you can call loaded! Will anyone even want that much memory is a small (Continued...)

Sharps, being the logical person that I am (just call me Ms. Spock), why in the world would they have 16 slots if they couldn't be used?
