Tomcat, <<<Just FYI from my experience, most Intel 4-way servers ship with 1 or 2 processors in them. The same with 8-way servers. The highest volume servers are probably 2-way servers with one processor. I don't know how many of these machines get upgraded with extra processors later. So the ratio is higher, but not much, much higher. >>> I probably agree that on the low end (maybe 50% of the market) the ratio is probably less than 2:1, but on the medium and high end, the servers go from $50K to several hundred thousands of dollars - I don't have much sense on how they are configured (help).
