Another Transmeta based server

If you remember, J0rdan posted about a Transmeta Server being produced by Rebel.com.Well, TransmetaZone has the scoop on a rack-mount transmeta server, the WebBunker from Fibercycle
Comments?
To this effect, California based FiberCycle has announced the release of the WebBunker, a low-power, high-density server. What makes the WebBunker unique is that it is one of the first rack-mounting servers to incorporate Transmeta's mobile processor, Crusoe.__________
The WebBunker Model FC206i - the first of FiberCycle's WebBunker line of servers - will hit the market mid-second quarter this year for around $9,300 USD or about $1500 per CPU blade . The 2U rack-mounting unit has six independent single-cpu servers (it will be able to scale dual Crusoe processors shortly), dual redundant power supplies and IO blades all in one package. The FC206i will rely upon a 20Gb EIDE ATA-100 hard drive for permanent storage, and come equipped with 256Mb of onboard DDR SDRAM. One expansion DIMM slot will enable a maximum up 756Mb memory per CPU. Each of the six CPU bays contains a completely independent TM5600 Crusoe based server, with the CPU and system board up front, and the hard drive in rear.

![]() The Register has posted a review of IBM's Thinkpad T42p. The T42p sports ATI's Mobility Fire GL T2 workstation graphics chip. What sets a workstation chip apart from standard graphics chips is its certification for use with certain high-end graphical design packages. So if you want a notebook to run a CAD package, or a 3D rendering application, you'll want one that has a graphics chip approved by the software vendor. That way, when you run a preview of that complicated scene that you've been working on for days, you know it will work.This really does look like a mobile workstation. You might want to take a look. |
