<I understand that the K-7's point-to-point networking puts it as a distinct disadvantage to the Xeon when the latter is used with the Corollary technology that Intel acquired last year. But if I understand it correctly, the Intel approach remains bus-oriented.>

Yes, the Intel approach remains bus-oriented. Why do you say that the point-to-point topology of the K7 puts it at a disadvantage?

And are there any details on the chipset being designed by the "privately-held company in San Jose"? Knowing some of this can provide some insight into how AMD will try and take on Xeon-based servers.
