Server sales: I don't know whether Wilcox or Dataquest is screwed up but these numbers are so far off I suspect they might be quarterly and not full year. For example, he states that CPQ sold 483K units - CPQ sold 1.2M servers in the volume space alone, not counting any of the high end products. And the revenue number of $3.9B is a long way from the $21B the company reported for enterprise. That would have pointed to about $17B for servers and storage after taking out professional services.

I'm too lazy to go back and dig up the numbers, but this armchair analysis tells me Wilcox was reporting 4Q numbers not full year.
