Daniel, >>>IBM's forray into semi's is well known. Today's announcement is nothing new.<<< I think it is something new. If what is described below comes to fruition, they're talking about putting a server class PC on a chip (at least the CPU and memory parts of it). >>>LSI is way ahead of the game though.<<< I think LSI is good, or I wouldn't own the stock, but IBM (and Intel) are in a class by themselves. With IBM's technology, twenty-four million "gates," or circuits -- equal to as much as eight times the processing and two to four times the memory found on today's typical PC -- can be packed on a single chip.
