| Open-Sourcing Fibre Channel over Ethernet
But, if you're working at a data center with hundreds to thousands of servers, clusters and terabyte-sized databases, then every millisecond matters. This is why Intel is promoting a new, fast way of transporting data: FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) for Linux. FCoE's purpose is to enable data centers to consolidate LAN and SAN (storage area network) traffic over 10GB Ethernet. FC, which comes in speeds from 2 to the just arriving 8G bps, is commonly used in data center SANs. In recent years it's been challenged by iSCSI. Fibre, which, despite the name can run both on copper and fiber-optic cables, is seen as faster and more reliable, while iSCSI is commonly thought of as less expensive. Intel, along with FCoE's founder Cisco Systems, is hoping to combine the virtues of both Fibre and iSCSI with this new high-speed, dual-purpose network fabric.

(Even Magedson's corporate agent is pretty tricky to find. Ever heard of Reeves Mountain, Arizona? According to Magedson, it's somewhere northeast of Phoenix, and close to just about nothing. Mapquest doesn't have a listing. Neither does Google Maps. And if you haven't heard of it, imagine some lawyer from Wisconsin trying to find the guy, much less serve him with papers.) The deposition in Miller's case was supposed to be limited strictly to issues of jurisdiction: Could Miller sue the Rip-Off Report in Florida when the company is based in Arizona? But things got extraordinarily testy. For five hours, Magedson and Miller's attorney, Christopher Whitelock, sparred over just about everything they could possibly spar over. Even Magedson's own attorney, Speth, seemed exhausted by the contentiousness of the debate.
