Dale, my good friend on the other side of the aisle:

If $68 per share is a good short, and $82 per share is a great short, then $87 per share must be a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious short.

Unfortunately, you can't spell that.

(Neither, it seems, can the SI spell checker. I'm lodging a bug
report with the webmaster).

>>That is what should worry you Quiksand. XEON can be used by NASA in space exploration, and it can be used by kids to shoot down Nija Turtles (or whatever it is they shoot). It is a powerful processor, at an inexpensive price. Get the picture.

For what you get with a Xeon, I would hardly call it inexpensive. A xeon with 1 meg of L2 costs well over 2000 retail. When Wintel can get them up to 32 or 64 way, then I will be concerned.
