Danny3Peat - Re: "fully populate the board, now it's 16K worth of CPUs to make blue screens - are you proposing this as a better example of the price/performance benefits of Intel technology?"

Hey - it's a screw up - just like the AMD K6's that took 2 hours to boot on Gateway's motherboards.

Of course, that was acceptable for AMD - eh ?

Register reporting the Sabre mobo still sucks.

theregister.co.uk

"According to a reliable source close to Intel's plans, the Sabre chipset still needs tweaking and performance is not as good as it should be for eight-way SMP server performance."
