<And the four-way Xeon system is bound to beat the two-way Alpha thanks to brute-force parallel processing.> And what makes you think this way? "Brute-force parallel processing"!! So far the box score is: 1p-A264 = 58.7 SPECint95 1p-X-II = 15.2 SPECint95 2p-A264 = 76.1 2p-X = ???? (Don't hear you... aooh?) So far your N-way Xeon demonstrated NO brute-force processing power yet. "Is bound to beat" - when it lags 4X in performance! You are really the i-man!
