IBM demonstrated a blade server board based on the Cell architecture at the E3 show this week, and reportedly plans to sell the boards in rack-based server systems.
The board carried two Cell processors running at up to 2.8Ghz, as well as 1GB of DRAM split across two chips, according to Nikkei’s TechOn service. The demo box ran on Linux.

only 2.8ghz? hmmm
well im sure they can hit 3.2ghz until early 2006 when they launch the ps3.
it sounds like they want to start selling cell based servers very soon! smart move to sell their early chips for servers while they tweak them...
