OK, so I have seen most of the broadcast and perused most of the related
web pages related to the N-class server announcement (9000
only at this point of course) and one thing really stood out: it
it supposed to be the killer web server machine (Best On The Planet).
Points were made about how "embarassing" it could be for a company
to have their web site swamped. The "Web QoS" was emphasized by its
own little animated pitch over how it would eliminate bottlenecks and
keep your customers happy. The overall SpecWeb (record breaking)
benchmarks were released. The scalability and reliability of the
platform was stressed, etc., etc.
Has the ESC heard about this? :-)
