chipguy,

ROFL. All IPF products have used the same socket and FSB
for over two years now.

I don't know what it covers, but I was under the impression that socket changed from Merced to McKinley. And there needs to be change in either Xeon or Itanium to have a common platform.

The AMD Hammer family has three
different sockets in less than a year.

That's not so good for AMD K8 line in general, but the server line is likely to say with Socket 940 for now (no change of socket on the horizon).
