AMD tries to round up Pacifica support

Oh great ANOTHER language: AMD succumbs to the "me too" and comes out with a proprietary project for virtualization. The could have supported Xen, but NOOooo they HAD to come out with their OWN stuff. Shame on you AMD for putting another fork at the IT dinner table.

As for virtualization, with Dell and HP stating that they were NOT going to continue to build 8+ processor machines, just how usefull are virtual servers on a 4 processor box? You won't save much by eliminating 3 single-processor machines, since they are MUCH cheaper than a 4 processor box. Virtualization ONLY makes sense on many CPU boxes - such as 32 or 64+ CPUs - not on 4 processor boxes.; Posted by: Roger Ramjet Posted on: 03/30/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
