Kap, <Intel can't sell this combo into corporate server/workstation and consumer markets at the same time. Which market do you think they will choose to sell to?> Try these two: - Low-end servers, especially those with two processors and costing about $5,000. These type of servers are especially popular for hosting web pages like Anandtech. - High-end graphics workstations, once again in the $5,000 price range. This kind of box should perform especially well in applications like 3D Studio MAX (which happens to be Athlon's strong point). Of course, these two markets aren't near the volumes of the consumer desktop. But they're certainly larger (in volumes, at least) than the 4-way and 8-way enterprise server segments. And there are certainly a lot of customers that fit in between these two extremes. Tenchusatsu P.S. - Given SI's rather tempermental servers as of late, perhaps they could use some Carmel-based web servers of their own.
