I'd have to dig up the article, but I recall a ComputerWorld tidbit
on IBM planning 32-way SMP, IIRC.  I probably should post that link.

I suppose that this makes sense.  IMHO, the P4 chip is a disaster... it
would make sense for Intel to get $$$ from the "bleeding edge" crowd
who wants the latest-and-not-so-greatest, helping to get the new bus
technology in volume production.
