I did mention the point that the shared-memory machines aren't selling. If you're missing them, you're in a rather elite and small group ;-)
In 2019 when Intel releases their 1024core chip, still at 2.5GHz with 256GB dimm memory, a lot of people will be surprised that linux works and has done so at that size since the start of the century. A lot of people will, in some way, be greatful that SGI pushed linux so far.
I, personally, think that Rackable and SGI will be a strong worldwide company and I look forward to being able to purchase from them.
