Hemeris has a new dual G4/733 Blade Server.
A blade server is not a super big interesting thing for the Amiga market, however, its is on the margins of interest here, and as you can see, from my mini-interview, it turns out there are possible 'possibilities' here (hahaha, wow what a line, look ma I'm a journalist)...
Ahem, back to the subject at hand:
From an e-mail, Alain Marsily of Hemeris:
Q: Is the hemeris a POP design?
Answer: No, that design lacks smp capability, and besides this just isn't a POP design.
Q: What is your northbridge/southbridge solution?
Answer: Our chipset is the marvell discovery 2
Q: Does your server design include AGP expansion?
Answer: Our design has no expansion at all, but we are evaluating expansion for a future design.
Q: Why choose a dual 733, as opposed to an 800mhz?
Answer: Because the 733mhz
--is cheaper
--dissipate less
--more importantly allowed us to add a faster L3
cache at a reasonable price
Disclosables specs should be available soon.
