Ricardo, the answer is that people are buying them. I'm answering as we are a European company, and this is a UK website. Speak to your local friendly clustering company. We have shipped, and are shipping, many dual socket/dual core machines. We have shipped to customers four and eight socket machines like this Tyan. We're soon to ship some 1U nodes with four sockets and oddles of RAM. 'Everyone' isn't buying them as we work with our customers to choose the best solution, based on your problem. As do all the other cluster companies on this list, to be fair. It depends if you have problems which will work well in an eight-way SMP machine. You might be better with a rack of four-way machines, which is the sweet spot of price/performance at the moment.
