For researchers romping through n-dimensional hypercube topology or ISVs constrained by the confines of server cages, HyperBlade Clusters from Appro offer space- and labor-saving alternatives.

Appro's HyperBlade Mini-Cluster is really a cluster-ready configuration amounting to blades that are far more like broad swords than rapiers. For some, the value proposition of blade servers can be as simple as reducing the number of servers, storage devices, and the number of associated vendors in what amounts to a physical consolidation strategy. Nonetheless, one of the best time-proven strategies for those attempting to minimize TCO for IT is simply to reduce complexity whenever possible.
The new wave of consolidation has been dubbed by some as operational consolidation. Under this scheme, physical machines are exchanged for logical machines on a host server. More often than not, operational consolidation involves the introduction of a new computer

"I'm saying he didn't have this experience at all and trying to back it up with a pointer to an article HE placed through the inquirer."

I don't know it is true. I don't know it is false. It isn't provable either way. So all your attempts at "proof" are just spam.

Just like your jihad at unearthing AMD employees on this board.
