In an effort to broaden its server business, Dell released details of a plan Wednesday to overhaul its server lineup, while announcing it had signed on Google to resell the systems. The PowerEdge servers would likely be the first to use Intel's new server processor, code-named "Woodcrest."

Google would use Dell servers for its search appliances, which it sells to businesses as a way to use the Mountain View, Calif.-based company's search technologies to sift through the large stores of data that most companies have accumulated.
