Hot Hardware has a small-ish preview of Nehalem garnered from a presentation in New York.
The Nehalem demo system is quite interesting as it’s built into an
Origen HTPC case, with 12.1” touchscreen and what looks like wood paneling. The insides are even more interesting, even though HH is barred from publishing numbers, you’ve got a massive triple-DIMM system running two 80GB (Intel) SSDs in RAID 0 on an X58 mobo.
