EXCLUSIVE VIEWING FOR OPEN MAGAZINE SUBSCRIBERS

With every C-level honcho glued to information about TCO and improved 
efficiency for IT, who can resist looking into the dollars and sense of 
server consolidation. We have explored that route, and there are 
obvious and subtle discoveries to be found. In fact, our digestive tracts 
would be intact in saying server consolidation promises to be the biggest 
price/performance disruption in the IT market since RISC. No less 
concerned about the bottom line is our technology briefing on a blade server 
approach that can divert IT spending on new host systems, racks, and 
floor space.
