Are you using slow applications to process the XML data flowing through your enterprise? Then try this! Not only does it come with built-in support for XML 1.0, XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0, but it fits in a 1U cabinet with 4 10/100 Ethernet ports! And it's the only product on the market that can process XML at wire speed!

Possibly. This box sounds like it's hype driven, though.As I understand it (from the post to xml-dev), this "accelerator" is a fuzzy allocation of CPU resources; it sits on a network and performs XML->[X]HTML transformations using XSLT (the product page hypes that it's XPath 1.0 compliant as well...). Since a 386 could flood a 10-Mbit ethernet connection, it sounds like they're just moving the transformation process off of a (possibly saturated) server to another (probably underused) server.

That's my point. This is a good thing. Once you reach the point of hysteria there's only good stuff on the other side of it.
Although I'm fairly sure that boxes like this one have been around for a couple of years now. I remember seeing something like it being advertised at one of the XML conferences I went to.
