I wonder if these guys will be NUMA ready. I have a feeling they will be. There was some guy in CCT6 who showed everyone else the benefits of being NUMA ready ;-) Would they show up with quad Opterons? I think so. It's the fastest thing going right now. They didn't need Crafty to figure that out. Would they have been NUMA ready? Maybe. Maybe not. Makes you wonder what Bob would be capable of if he played the secrecy game like the other guys.
