Tony,

On that Compaq thingy.

Sounds like Compaq builds great servers.

Thank god they didn't rely on Intel chipsets or they would stuck with their head up you know where.

Isn't Compaq still the worlds largest PC vendor.

Wonder why they are not gonna be offering Intel 1Ghz machines at launch.

Any ideas Tony.

regards,

Kash

Tony - Re: "8500 is the meanest monster in Compaq's Intel-based stable.
But what really sets it apart is its eight-way CPU core. Count 'em, eight Pentium
III Xeon CPUs, each equipped with 2 MB of onboard level 2 cache. Wow."

Great article !!

Unfortunately, Stevie Blunder won't believe it - he can't find any Compaq 8-way Pentium III Xeons on Pricewatch.com - so he doesn't believe they even exist !

Paul
