Re: TOE... en.wikipedia.org TCP Offload Engine or TOE is a technology for the acceleration of TCP/IP, specifically by moving TCP/IP processing to a separate dedicated sub-system from the main host CPU, the overall system TCP/IP performance is improved. . . . Gigabit TCP communication using software processing alone is enough to fully load a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 processor, which results in little or no processing resources left for the applications to run on the system. AMD announced already (http://www.itjungle.com/breaking/bn031506-story01.html) that chipsets with TOE are forthcoming for Socket F. While being much more important for high BW servers, I bet this technology will quickly trickle down all the way to thin clients. fpg
