Bill - You wrote That is good for AMD since SUN is earmarking servers to have higher speed AMD chips in them in the next few years.

That's very interesting.
I know SUN said they were going to use x86 CPUS in their new servers. How did you happen to get the inside scoop that nobody else could get - that these would be AMD CPUs?

You also wrote AMD will be able to get this business more easily since the newer parts take less power and this is always a problem in dense blade columns.

Yes, low power is very important for blade servers. How do you explain the fact that AMD's lower power Athlon devices haven't yet been selected for blade servers by any of the leading blade server manufacturers?
