Dell today unveiled its new four-way PowerEdge servers, which are powered by the new dual-core, Intel Xeon 7000 (code-named Paxville) MP chips and (hot-off-the-coding board) SQL Server 2005 from Microsoft.
The launch came during a media call staged by longtime partners Dell , Intel and Microsoft to showcase servers running the latest database software and dual-core chips from the world's top software maker and chipmaker.
Neil Hand, vice president of enterprise worldwide marketing for Dell's server line, said the PowerEdge 6800 and 6850 quad-socket servers can offer up to a 51 percent performance increase in computing workloads.
