Re: "According to the article, these new Xeons have the 1 - 2 MB cache on the same die as the processor (offering 1 or 2 Megabytes (MB) of "on-die" level-two (L2) cache. ) I think this was first done by Intel in making chips for HP, which also had a meg or 2 on die. Paul talked about this. I see Intel is not upstaging Itanium in clock frequency, by introducing the new Xeons at 700 MHz."

Intel fabs an HP processor containing 1.5Meg all L1 on-die cache. AFAIK Intel's new Xeon is the largest die (by transistor count) ever to go into volume production. It may also be the largest by die size as well FAIK.
