China powers server sale growth in Asia despite SARS
Agence France-Presse
Singapore, September 1

Computer server sales in the Asia-Pacific region outside Japan grew almost eight per cent in the second quarter despite SARS, a technology industry monitor said on Monday.

Server manufacturers sold an estimated $1.22 billion in the June quarter from a year ago, with China accounting for 31 per cent of the market and posting 11 per cent growth, Gartner Dataquest said.

"The impact of SARS was experienced mainly in the services sector, while other sectors have remained fairly resilient to this," a Gartner press statement said.

"Continuous investment by the government in building the information technology (IT) environment has helped to contain the overall impact on server revenue for China," it added.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which first emerged in southern China in late 2002, ravaged East Asian economies between March and May this year, particularly tourism and related sectors.
