John, Re: "not to mention the fact that 8-way servers, and more importantly, the chipsets required to run them, are really hard to do... I eagerly await proof."

Who needs proof? AMDroid logic tells us that AMD has "glueless logic", which helps them to build 8-way chipsets without much "effort". Besides, AMD already "demonstrated" a 2-way Hammer system, so that must mean that they are "almost stable". After that, 4-way and 8-way are just "baby steps", right? <g>

Here's to looking forward to 8-way Opteron based Sun servers under the Christmas Tree by year end. ;-)
