OK. What does a 379 Pete with, what, 8” straight cut’s, a polished cow crusher, and a Wilson Cellular antenna, have to do with a CPU, and why are they on this post? LOL

RE; Xeon vs. Tukwila Itanium. Tukwila and its associated chipset bring socket compatibility between Xeon and Itanium processors, by introducing the new interconnect called Intel QuickPath Interconnect. QuickPath, was called Common System Interface (CSI). This will reduce costs for both Intel and MoBo manufacturers.
Tukwila has four “full” QuickPath links and two “half” links. Xeon doesn’t.

And, Whitefield, the Xeon that had QuickPath, suffered so many project delays and development problems, its been canceled.

Husband, Father, Brother?

Dang -- someone knows his trucks, and his chips.

I just like the looks of those rigs, and do my best to stay out of their way in my dinky econobox (or whatever truckers call them) <grin>.
