I just visited the HP Blade area, it was very cool, got to see their new Itanium blade, as well as a BL460c – very cool. It was also great to see both the C-Class enclosure and the shorty enclosure (c3000), it was great to see them, as well as the range of blades they had.

I also got the chance to speak with the guys about Blade Workstations and the Blade PC, which was very cool, I still think using something like a Blade PC or Blade Workstation could be a great way of providing the desktop infrastructure, even if we just look at the cost of downtime/the cost of move for the averagetrader.

I also saw the range of HP Proliant servers, including the DL160/180/380s etc, as well as very cool demo from Intel showing power utilization, the difference you can achieve using newer processors and newer lower voltage processors – very cool.

I’m off to watch the announcements for today.
