Wanna: Not on the home PC, if that's what you are alluding to. It's more of an application specific technology. IBM has the right idea in putting it in one of their embedded chips. It would also go well in servers as a third party chip, or even something that's integrated in the chipset. But the application would need to be something that had heavy CPU usage and heavy TCP/IP usage, right? (Or perhaps an application that is extremely sensitive to latency). I just have a problem seeing where this would apply&#133 other than in serious servers, which isn't exactly the standard target of embedded chips. -fyo
