Scumbria: I'm not familiar with "Blades". Do you have a link? Certainly. From your own link ( investor.cnet.com ) ------------------------------------------------------------ Powerbar and competitors coming soon Testers will get early Powerbar models this summer, Cox said, with high-volume shipments coming in the fourth quarter. Systems made of two-processor blades, which can handle heavier computing loads, will be released "at or soon after" the single-processor models, he said. That schedule isn't far off the rest of the industry's time frames. Compaq's QuickBlade servers will arrive in the fourth quarter, including single-processor and dual-processor models, said Paul Miller, director of marketing for Compaq's Intel server group. ... Processor blades will be plugged into the Powerbar chassis using the CompactPCI technology, an outgrowth of the PCI data pathway used for adding network cards and other equipment to standard PCs. CompactPCI has been used for several years by telecommunications companies, the military and factories. ------------------------------------------------------------ -fyo
