AMD's Opteron already fuels 50 test boxes. It'll be interesting to see if they can knock out Intel.

Although a relatively small company, Newisys comes to the market with some interesting strengths. For one thing, rather than try to make money by building and selling machines itself, the company primarily plans to license its designs to partners that will manufacture the product under their own brand names.
So far, about 50 of the machines with test versions of AMD's Opteron chip have been seeded out to various companies. Newisys said that three top-tier U.S. server makers are evaluating its design.
