32-Cores on a standard 2U server is no longer a dream

With the new release of Intel’s latest Xeon CPU (Nehalem-EX) for the enterprise market, 32-Cores on a standard 2U server is no longer a dream. Think about what you can do with 32-Cores (64-Cores counting the HT) and 128GB Ram in a standard 2U for your next virtualization project! Get it? Yes, you could put almost the whole mini data center (that’s 1998 standard, say 128 servers, each with PIII 1G with 1G Ram per server) on to it, see the cost saving? Bingo!!!

I just finished watching a recent movie called “New York, I Love You” (2009)
and it really did surprise me at the end, as it was directed by Jiang Wen! Unbelievable!
