In one embodiment, a printed circuit board (PCB) has a first central processing unit (CPU) socket and a second CPU socket substantially in line with the first CPU socket, and also has a first plurality of dual in-line memory module (DIMM) sockets interconnected with the first CPU socket and a second plurality of DIMM sockets interconnected with the second CPU socket (in a direction parallel to the first plurality of DIMM sockets). The first plurality of DIMM sockets are arranged on the PCB in at least a first column and a second column of DIMM sockets, and the second plurality of DIMM sockets are arranged on the PCB in at least the second column and a third column of DIMM sockets, such that the second column of DIMM sockets contains interleaved DIMM sockets from each of the first plurality of DIMM sockets and the second plurality of DIMM sockets.

Multi-column interleaved DIMM placement and routing topology

An integrated shipping scheme enables seller users of a third-party payment service to facilitate shipping transactions in connection with payment transactions for items sold by the sellers. Shipping information is automatically gathered and/or entered by the seller via a computer interface hosted by the third-party payment service and sent 'behind the scenes' to a selected shipping vendor. The shipping vendor processes the shipping information, and returns shipment data, including data to generate a shipping label. A web page containing the shipping label is then generated and served to a client operated by the seller and displayed on a browser screen, enabling the shipping label to be printed out by the seller. At the same time, electronic payment transfer operations are performed to effectively transfer payment from the seller directly to the shipping vendor via the third-party payment service in a manner that is transparent to both the seller and the shipping vendor.
