Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5.3 became globally available today, with the new enterprise OS featuring virtualisation improvements, support for Intel's Core i7 architecture, and inclusion of the Open Java Development Kit from Sun Microsystems.
Available as the 3GHz Phenom II X4 940 and the 2.8GHz Phenom II X4 920, these new quad-core CPUs are AMD's first 45nm desktop processors, and they finally bring AMD in line with Intel's 45nm manufacturing process, used in its Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad and Core i7 chips.
