Server sales, 3Q2003

[Yousuf Khan]

Here's another article that talks about how many servers were sold in the
"commodity" end of the market. Don't know what else to call this market, you
can't call it the x86 server market, since Itanium isn't x86. You can't
really call it the low-end server market, since many people would take issue
with calling Itanium low-end. You can't really call it Intel server market
either, since AMD is in there too. Even calling it the commodity market is a
bit of a stretch for Itanium.

Anyways, here's the numbers they've tabulated: Xeon 769,000 servers, Itanium
4957 servers, and Opteron 10,746 servers.

You mean as opposed to "merchant ship"? :-)
