Smallpops,

IIRC that the average Altix size is around the number that you posted. However Altix(IPF) has another major advantage over current Opterons and thats the address space. Opteron is currently capped at 1 TB and IPF can go to a very much larger number whatever 2^50 is I believe. Also its possible to add memory to Altix without adding procs, this is not possible with current Opteron systems.

How many systems do you think sold with 1 TB of memory? 1? More than 1?

If HP is in fact going after HPC market with Opteron, isn't it enough of a first step if the system you offer is good enough for 90% of the market?

Also, the trend to clustering solutions is continuing from very large systems.
