Confirmed - but you need a subscription to read the WSJ URL below:
TECHNOLOGY ALERT
from The Wall Street Journal.
Sunday, Jan. 21, 2007
Sun and Intel have been negotiating an agreement under which Sun would buy
Intel chips for use in server systems. Such a deal would be a blow to AMD,
currently Sun's exclusive supplier for chips based on the popular x86
design used in most PCs and servers, and signal renewed competitiveness
for Intel's chips.

I would like to see a intel cpu pull the load presented by a x4500...
My guess is they they will be limited to compute servers like the
x2100, and workstations such as a little brother to the u40 and u20.
