This is an interesting new Xeon 3000 series platform (that will also support Kenstfield, officially). Think (almost) all the features of a real ATX board in half the space. Now imagine the possibilities!

While at Intel for something completely unrelated, I was given the opportunity to get up-close and personal with a beta Tigerton/Caneland platform. For those that don't know, Tigerton is the next evolution (Core 2 based) of the Xeon MP.

NVIDIA sent along these two Quadro cards to use for testing, and in our test beds. The 1400 is a nice performer for the money and the 4500 is just plain INSANE!

Iwill's DK88 dual Opteron motherboard offers some pretty sweet features. I've been using it for a while now and it is rock-solid.
