They are however not dominating the embedded market, ARM is. Intel has a very strong foothold there (StrongARM/XScale), and I expect the next generation cell phone designs (3G etc) will have at least a few design wins for Intel (we are talking 500+ million/yr volumes there for the market as a whole). Volumes of embedded chips have been higher than desktop processors forever I think (esp if we count 1$ 8bit processors)

In the embedded market PowerPC dominates in the automotive field, and ARM in handheld battery applications. MIPS is a niche player.

This is all off topic in terms of 64 bit servers however, and the main argument of a lack of crossover between embedded and desktop/server processors still holds.
