Tenchusatsu, Re: "At the time, I don't think Compaq had any access to 450 MHz Xeons." 450 MHz Xeons capable of 4 way are just becoming available, right? Also, I thought 2 MB L2 cache versions were coming out, but I may be wrong. What I liked about that benchmark was what seems to be outstanding performance for a clustered configuration. The one Compaq had in the running was a 16 way. That'll sell a lot of Xeons, if customers bite (I have no doubt they are biting for the 2, 4 and even 8 ways, but 16 is new ground for these pups in a commercial server). Tony
