Did anyone happen to notice if the new Xserve motherboard was similar or the same as the one that was posted on eBay not too long ago?
Got a tip for us?

No it is not. The one that was on e-bay had vertical PCI slots, and there were four of them. Also there was an independent AGP slot.

Re: eBay item
Nope, the one on e-bay is a tower board. Not a rack-mount. Look for it in July at MWNY.

no, the ebay one only had 1 ethernet port, and it had vertical pci slots.

And of course the mystery plug was absent on this board, so the prototype was exactly that, a one of a kind. Still, it was interesting and maybe some of the tech will be seen on the new Desktops.
