"AMD reportedly is looking to transition its X86 architecture to 64-bit processing to suit higher-end servers. For these applications, AMD will face a challenge bringing its Windows-based platform against a firmly established Unix market already served by the likes of Compaq, IBM, and Sun Microsystems." What AMD has to offer the server space is "value proposition". While it may be tough to gain share in many of the the top tier OEM and corporate end user accounts, AMD's products should be well received in the explosive growth small-office-home-office market. About all this segment wants to know is does it work and is it reliable. If so, a lower priced architecture will take home the bacon.
