<< Hewlett-Packard plans to start shipping blade servers with Intel Corp. Pentium III microprocessors running the Linux operating system in January and will offer blades running Microsoft Corp. Windows two or three months later.

HP's own HP-UX operating system and PA-RISC processors will be adapted to blades toward the end of the first half, executives said.

HP also is expected to announce a string of technology companies that support its standards and could turn out blades or components that hook into HP systems.

Those include chip makers Advanced Micro Devices Inc. , Intel and Transmeta Corp., storage networking provider Brocade Communications Systems Inc., and software developers Microsoft, Oracle Corp. and RealNetworks Inc. among others.

Sounds to me more like these will be running on PIIIs.
