Intel has announced 'xeon' processors all the way to 733 mhz.  And claim that
they can go to 8-way configurations just like the current xeons.  I haven't
seen one myself, yet...  although Dell has a couple on the 'books'.  But since
I haven't even seen a price for any xeon > 550mhz, I don't know that they are
shipping anything yet.
