Dell to use Opteron?
In a today's document coming from stock market analyst Susquehanna Financial Group (SIG) Dell is now preparing the release of two Opteron servers that could be the first step toward a wider partnership. Of course this is not the first time we have this kind of news and it must be taken with extreme caution until we get an official confirmation.

Planet 64Bit
here is first to provide some benchmarks and it's nice to see that twin Xeon EM64T at 3.8GHz can't keep up with twin Opteron 248 running at 2.2GHz only! Nocona is supposed to be released on Monday (who said recalled on Tuesday???) and we'll keep track of all benchmarks against Opteron here... Stay tuned!
