<Meaning Intel may already have a successor to Profusion out soon?> I can't comment. There are a greater number of possibilities when it comes to chipsets for servers. All I can tell you is that so far, the only 8-way Xeon chipset from Intel will be Profusion. No 8-way chipsets for IA-64 (Merced, McKinley) has been announced yet, but the 4-way Merced chipset, 460GX, has already been revealed. <Thanks for the info we wouldn't have gotten anywhere else. I only understood what you wrote when you wrote about the disadvantages. I wonder if that means anything.> Heh, take what you can. The grueling technical details were for people who could understand that sort of stuff, like Scumbria or Ali Chen. Tenchusatsu
