Paul <PT - Re: "This was an impressive expansion by Dell but they remain a relatively small player in this market -- so far" Then you stated - "Nope -- I doubt any of the servers used any AMD processors. But this is an opportunity for real growth in percentage terms is they could sell a few" Nice hypocritical comments - BACK TO BACK !!!!> Sorry for the confusion when I was trying to agree with you regarding Dell's growth while adding a comment on growth rates relative to unit growth. The second comment was intended as: But this is an opportunity for real growth in percentage terms of [AMD processors] if they [AMD] could sell a few [in this market]. Dell did sell a few -- and a whole lot more "few" than previously relative to overall market growth. Didn't mean to draw so many !!! PT ps: Got bogged down at the end of "The Soul of a New Machine." Sortof like Data General did. The engineers finish the machine after long days/weeks/months or effort and the company then delays the release? Looked on the web to see where Data General is today: "an open systems company which specializes in providing servers, storage products and services to information systems" recently bought up by EMC.
