sure.. and the benchmarks showed... what.. a 2% gain in performance?
(or even a performance hit?)
talk about marketing.
I am going to laugh so hard when people find out they have
to pay licenses by the count of cpus.

Well, I wanted to have a figure here and spot any obvious mistakes I
might have made. SCSI definitely improves performance and is a must
