I just thought I'd throw up a little post about what we're going to be doing at 2CPU.com over the first part of 2004. I should have more free time available to me this year, so don't be surprised if the amount of published content increases exponentially.

I'd also like to welcome Rich, aka Forge to our writing team. I'm not asking him to post news (because we know how that works out :-D) but he's going to be doing some product reviews, some Linux-oriented content and even the occasional editorial from time to time. He's an interesting dude with solid hardware knowledge and his Linux kung-fu is quite strong. He should have something for you folks to read in the near future.

As for me, I'll be posting another look at hyperthreading at the end of this week or early next week. I decided to get a little more technical this time around and we'll be looking at the performance improvement that hyperthreading brings to the table with a 3.2GHz P4 and 2.8GHz Xeons. I'll also be publishing a Shuttle SB62G2 review in the next couple of weeks.

Hooz has Opterons and 3.2GHz Xeons with 1MB of L3 cache and other assorted goodies that he'll be taking a look at once he finds a moment to breathe.

We're also going to get into some barebones servers in 2004. Tyan and AOpen have both expressed interest so once we test a couple of those, it should get us access to more.

This ends today's public service announcement.
