I thought the PowerStation had a pair of 970MPs? It has a cell in there to?
Speaking of the PowerStation, I stumbled across a site called power.org.
On it one can find a pdf titled "Power.org Reference Design Schematic
for Power Architecture 970MP Server"
(PPC970MP_Ref_Schematics_Legal_021407_final.pdf). This have any relation
to the PowerStation?
I think the 970FX has 2 stage frequency scaling (nominal / 2 and / 4).
If the 970MP also has this, does the PowerStation support voltage
scaling for the lower frequencies? (I could have sworn I read that the
power consumption for a processor has a voltage squared term in it?)
