Shawn -
from the DELL thread... CPQ still about the same as the next 2 combined, and more than 3 times DELL's numbers, even in a weak quarter. I don't think we need to be concerned about CPQ's ability to maintain server dominance. BTW you will see that according to mohan, DELL servers top out at $30,000. CPQ sells several server configurations which start out at more than $100,000 and run into the millions when fully loaded...

World server market, 3rd quarter
.....IDC said the Round Rock-based company "remains a rising star" in the server market, which it entered in earnest about two years ago...
...Dell Computer Corp. makes the top five in the number of servers shipped, but not in terms of revenue. That's because its servers top out at about $30,000.
