Nehalem Motherboards

Yes, and the Supermicro is no server board.

You can plug an x8 card into an x16 slot, so I'm questioning the fact that Tyan is a bit short-sighted IMO, it's about versatility. No need to try and convince me of your definition of a server board.

Lets be nice here.
There are many definitions of a server board.
Some see them as any board with 2 sockets.
I see the ones with X16 slots as workstation boards and the ones with onboard vid as true server boards.
All these companies will have lines of boards, not just the ones shown here so I expect that all will have both types.
Remember, it's early and we're just seeing the start here.
