AAPL's New servers outperform Dell's - AAPL owns 43% of ARM
Been some comparison here of Dell's stock v AAPL's so now we can compare the products:
" ... the performance of the new 266Mhz Macintosh Server G3 using NetBench, a benchmark program from Ziff-Davis Inc. ...
...(AAPL's) G3 achieved a throughput score of 89 Mbps per second, faster than a Dell Server 2200/300, which achieved a throughput score of 83 Mbps per second. "
What say ye now Alomex ? Dell , as Alomex's voice of reason used to ramble about on this thread , is a "screwdriver shop" .
Further in AAPL's favor are its resellers , whose in-person efforts will become vital in a server war with on-line sellers :
" In addition to build-to-order configuration options, the Macintosh Server G3 is also available in two standard configurations through Apple authorized resellers. "
Newton's termination was expected , was part of Amelio's plan , and imperative now that INTC owns Digital's Strong ARM patents .
AAPL owns 43% of ARM (industry effort for a low energy RISC chip) but is committed to the PowerPC which is a superior technology . THINK INTC is thinking differently today ?
AAPL can sit back and collect from INTC's efforts , or maybe hang out a "not for sale sign" on its 43% share and wait .
Got to keep in mind investments (AAPL) are based on expectations .
