Sure there is. Running one larger interconnect has the potential to be much less expensive and easier to run than many smaller ones. Economy of scale... That's simply a fallacy. One larger interconnect assumes that the cost of aggregate bandwidth scales linearly, when it fact it's clearly super-linear and may well be exponential. This becomes worse as supporting the aggregate bandwidth exceeds commodity media technology. Tony - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
