Hi all Dell and VMware have got a contract for the City of Copenhagen to replace more than 600 hundred servers spread on 15 locations all over town with 32 centralised R900 quad processor servers each equipped with 128GB ram - that is "full house", 32 sockets of 4GB each. Total disk storage will be 204TB. The expectations to reduced power consumption alone should bring cost savings of about USD 333,000 per year. No doubt that virtualization is hot. /gustav
