Fred, Article...CRN/ Intel Can't Meet Xeon Demand... September 30, 1998 ELECTRONIC BUYERS NEWS : Computer Reseller News' Joe Wilcox and Marcia Savage reported in the publication's Sept. 21 issue that server OEMs are supply-constrained in producing four-way servers based on Intel Corp.'s Xeon microprocessor. Sources told the CRN reporters that Intel's Xeon deliveries depend on a screening process, in which chips and chipsets that have been tested for four-way multiprocessors are "screened" against those that are suitable only for two-way or uniprocessor systems. John Miner, vice president and general manager of Intel's enterprise server group, acknowledged that the company cannot meet demand, but said the problem is short-term.
