Clusters

Actually, several companies are currently offering clusters with more than 2 nodes, using NT on Intel processors. Companies are also offering NT servers with considerably more than 4 Intel processors. Unisys has one with 12 PPro's I believe, though I don't know if they're actually selling them yet.

Eric - Re: "NT Enterprise Edition does include "Wolfpack""

Thanks for that confirmation.

Re: "MSCS has nothing to do with the number of CPUs supported in a system."

If one server (assuming we are talking Intel SMP servers) can hold 4 CPUS and MSCS can cluster 2 servers, doesn't that imply a limit of 8 CPUs supported by MSCS - at least for Intel architecture servers?
