Re: "Intel Corp. is delaying shipment of the next version of its 450NX Xeon chip set for servers until at least the beginning of 1999, company officials have confirmed."

Take note of the phrase "next version". Not to be confused with "current version" which is shipping.

The article is quite confusing. What is a 400mhz version of a chipset, as opposed to a 450mhz version of that chipset? How would the chipset even know the difference? And what does it mean to say that "The chip set, which can scale up to four processors on a server and can be configured with as much as 2MB of cache " when the chipset plays no part in caching? I hope we get some more intelligent reporting on this.
