Sun Unit Sales up 13.1% in 4Q04 Sun sold 93,553 machines, an increase in shipments of 13.1 percent. Most of that growth was driven by Sun's X86 server business. Message: Don't count Sun out yet, either. Sun's X86 server revenue grew by 360 percent, hitting $152.5 million for 2004. If Sun can maintain that growth rate, it will have a $700-million X86 server business in calendar 2005. If by some miracle Sun can do this, and its Unix sales continue to slide at about 5 percent, Sun will actually grow overall server sales by about 5 percent to about $5.4 billion or so in 2005 (about what Sun sold in 2003). That's a tall order, but clearly along the lines of what Sun has in mind as it ponders its future "Galaxy" Sun Fire Opteron lines. itjungle.com
