Tenchusatsu,
OK 2 design teams, problem not 450NX chipset but XEON problem. Finally solved afterr 6 months.

You may be right. (I don't know whether I should trust You more or TOM/ANAND) but the fact remains the same. INTC current presence in the high-.end server market is rather weak. Ask CPQ/DEC regarding scalability. One DEC engineer lamented on the fact that the ALPHA got a 20+ SMP limit right now. See what I mean ?

Not attacking the RISC camp in the high-margin server business but eventually getting attacked there by AMD (and maybe others)
