Jim & Intel Shareholders - Pentium III Xeon Servers are already being announced. Looks like IBM wants to be FIRST out of the chute ! Intel may also discuss the status of the 8-way PROFUSION servers on March 17 at the roll out. Paul {=========================} crn.com IBM To Roll Out New Netfinity Servers By Edward F. Moltzen New York 6:36 PM EST Wed., Mar. 10, 1999 .............. IBM Corp. is set to introduce several new network features and form factors when it unveils its new Pentium III Xeon-based Netfinity servers next week, executives said. The Netfinity 5500 M-20, with up to four nodes, will be priced at about $8,600 though exact pricing has yet to be set. "We're looking at an attack on the high end," said James Gargan, IBM program director for Netfinity marketing. Systems will include four hot-plug PCI slots along with "hot add" capability to put more capacity into the server without shutting it down, Gargan said. The Netfinity 5500 M-20, which will ship through the reseller channel via IBM's channel assembly programs, will include Lotus Domino Internet starter software, cluster management functions in its Netfinity Manager software, removable handles for rack-mounting, and a 3u open bay that can attach to the bottom of the server for additional, reseller-added features, IBM said. The formal announcement is set for March 17, when Intel Corp., Santa Clara, Calif., formally rolls out the new, 500 MHz Xeon processors in dual announcements in California and New York. IBM, Armonk, N.Y., will also announce that it will be ready, by the second quarter, with an 8-way cluster configuration of the Netfinity when Intel makes its own 8-way processor announcements. Other features on the Netfinity are expected to be announced next week, along with further details of its 8-way plans, Gargan said. Among other things, Gargan said, IBM RS/6000 designers are working with the Netfinity development team on readying the 8-way, Intel-based servers for market. "We think '99 is going to be the period of evaluation for 8-way, and 2000 will be the tremendous ramp," Gargan said.
