The TR crew are also going in the other direction today, with their preview of Intel's upcoming Woodcrest processor. This processor will replace the Xeon, & run on a new chipset coined Bensley.

"I recently attended a reviewer's workshop in Portland, Oregon where I got to spend some quality time with a pair of Woodcrest processors on the Bensley platform, and I came away impressed. More importantly, I came away with some benchmark scores we can compare directly to AMD's Opteron 285."
