Will the new Shuttle XPCs' take the I7 cpu?

[KDOG]

I'm really thinking about going to one of those Shuttle XPCs' but I don't want to get one until I know I can throw an I7 proc on it. Anyone have any info on it?

not unless they release a new model.
i7 requires ddr3 memory and is a different pin count/socket than c2d



actually it looks like you wont have to wait very long though http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/ar...ystem_at_ces_2009.html

And odd that intel has it listed with a start price.
