Come on Dan, this is the networked/Internet age. You don't think Otellini or Barrett can't pull up a report based on raw field P4 sales on their own PC? Give us all a break. Tony

Blow Hard DAn - Re: ""The 1.13GHZ can't shouldn't be shipped for months" seems to have been translated into "the 1.13GHZ will be ready next week". According to IBM, Intel may very well be shipping those 1.13 GHz Pentium IIIs next month - and it seems that IBM has designed them in to a brand new SERVER. "IBM next month will roll out two new Intel-based X Series servers that will feature built-in systems management.... The upcoming servers, which can hold either one or two processors, will be available in a number of different memory and storage configurations and will be fueled by the 1.1GHz version of Intel Pentium chips. Another LOSS for the AMD PaloMeathead !!! Paul {==========================} infoworld.com IBM readies servers with built-in systems management By Ed Scannell ATLANTA -- TRYING to keep the momentum it carried from late last year, IBM next month will roll out two new Intel-based X Series servers that will feature built-in systems management. On March 13, the company will roll out its XSeries 200 and 220 models that feature a built-in adapter card called Falcon. Embedded in the card is systems management software that helps corporate users diagnose system problems even after the system has gone down. "[Falcon] allows diagnosis independent of the system. Users can use a separate line to dial into the system while it is down andactivate the [systems management] software," said Brian Sanders here at IBM's PartnerWorld conference, program director for IBM's e-Server in Research Triangle Park, N.C. IBM also has built into Falcon a proprietary operating system that controls all of its basic functions. The systems offer IBM's partners not only the chance to sell a new technology but increases the chances for them both to offer existing and to develop new after-market services and support, Sanders said. The upcoming servers, which can hold either one or two processors, will be available in a number of different memory and storage configurations and will be fueled by the 1.1GHz version of Intel Pentium chips. Although Falcon initially works with Windows, IBM is working on a version of Falcon that supports Linux, Sanders said. Ed Scannell is an InfoWorld editor at large.
