Surely it's impossible? Nope. As the guys at The Register have pointed out, Supermicro, a company reknowned for its OEM server hardware, has engineered a 4-chip Opteron motherboard that'll fit into a 1U chassis.
Based on the nForce Pro 2200 chipset, the board has dual-core support (so that's 8-way Opterons in a 1U chassis... cheers!) along with support for up to 128GiB of RAM.
Take a look at the full spec-sheet over at the Supermicro website.
