So what's the point? There are plenty of 8 processor SMP PPro designs, and some that are 32-64 CC-NUMA (like Sequent's big iron servers). SMP and NUMA designs were around long before the processor bus and chipsets supported SMP directly. Big server companies just continue to do the same thing but with dual/quad clusters of processors over layered L3 caches and interleaved memory.
