Hi Beowulfers,
have you had any experience using 10gbaseT yet?
I happened on a media story about how quite a few vendors have 
recently intro'd support for it.  the only nics mentioned were 
the heavyweight encumbered-with-TOE kind - on them at least,
the article mentioned 20-25W dissipation.  (which doesn't seem
like a big deal - about a disk and a half, fraction of a cpu,
or a tenth of a GPU :)

anyway, I'm interested to hear if anyone's played with 10gbaseT
(or 10G clusters in general)...

thanks, mark hahn.
