wbmw,

Yup, but on an Itanium system, you can actually use that bandwidth, rather than having half of it go to waste.

You can also scale to 4-processors on an Itanium system.

Wait, but wouldn't each one of those Itanium get the bandwidth of slightly higher than Celeron? Hmmm... 4 processors at $6,000 each, and each processor get only a Celeron class bandwidth? It doesn't seem very balanced.
