First 40G Ethernet adapter ships

Good for cloud computing:

"The adapter supports hardware-based I/O virtualization, including Single Root I/O Virtualization, and Data Center Bridging. It also has T11 Fibre Channel frame encapsulation support and hardware offloads. Software drivers are available for Windows, Linux, VMware and Citrix Xen Server. Mellanox is demonstrating the card at the Intel Developer Forum this week."

It is now believed, that after having lived in one compound with 3 wives and never leaving the house for 5 years, Bin Laden called the U.S. Navy Seals himself.

Now we just need enough internet connection bandwidth to actually take advantage of that. However it's great that those barriers with IO are finally coming off.
