  Going after what many analysts believe will be an extremely lucrative
market over the next   few years, IBM next week at NetWorld+Interop in
Atlanta will unveil its first series in a of   newly-designed servers built
specifically for ISPs.

  The Netfinity 4000R, code-named the Intimidator, is a single processor
server that is only   1.75-inches high, allowing ISPs to stack as many as 42
units, or 84 processors, in a single   rack. IBM has licensed some of the
technology used in the new design from Network   Engines, although IBM
officials on Tuesday claim the design and packaging of that   technology is
theirs.
