Andreas, I'm not taking the time to collect them, but there were many posts by AMD types about Intel's server business about to be ravaged, gouged, prices plummeting, etc. It ain't happening, like I've been predicting for a long, long time. Not only that, but startup Transmeta stands to be the second largest chip supplier to the X86 server (small, blades) market. As for mid range (4 way and 8 way) X86 market, it's all Intel's for at least three years (assumption: no AMD chip for a year, and two years for a tier one OEM to do all the development and manufacturing release, if they choose to do so).

p.s., I thought I'd demonstrated a sense of humor around here. |
