Paul, Re: "Compaq Announces 450 MHz 4-Way Xeon Servers
These have all the cache options - 512K, 1024K and 2,048K !
And they carry nice ASPs - for Intel !"
Sounds like the whole fleet is ready now. As cache size goes up, so does the ASP and our stock price. 500 MHz coming too. Like we said, no skipped beats with Barrett in charge. They're talking my language with the following features and functions:
The Compaq ProLiant 7000 and ProLiant 6500 servers, deliver the levels of
availability, performance and
scalability required to keep demanding enterprise database, ERP, transaction
processing and web server
applications running in business-critical environments. Both servers offer
advanced fault tolerant features
including redundant processor power modules, redundant power supplies,
redundant cooling fans and PCI
Hot Plug components that can be swapped without powering down the system.
Companies like Compaq don't put in all this server development work and then throw in just any server CPU chip, a point you know I've been going around and around on with the AMD folks (for when they have a K7). Intel will have the server CPU chip market all to themselves for quite a while.
