Dale, Re: "The problem is that you are both wrong. Large cache Xeon multiway servers are not being replaced by systems based on the fastest small cache Xeons, they are being replaced by PIIIM based blade servers." I'm certain you're right to some degree. Market share for blade servers is gaining at the expense of multiple segments, including the multiprocessor high-end. However, most high-end systems are used for back-end work to begin with, and you'll rarely if ever see a business replace their back-end with blades. Therefore, the majority of high-end market will probably remain more or less constant. Look for blades to really take away market share from the 1U/2U rack based front-end market. wbmw
