Beamer - Another Server Design win for Intel at Dell. Looks like AMD LOST ANOTHER ONE !!! I wonder if Ban Ban Liar Dan will take note? dailynews.yahoo.com Monday November 19 12:15 AM ET Dell Launches Low-Priced Server for Small Businesses NEW YORK (Reuters) - Dell Computer Corp. (Nasdaq:DELL - news) on Monday launched a more powerful computer aimed at small and medium businesses, a market for which its low-price, Intel-microprocessor based computers have appeal. Dell, which became the No. 1 maker of personal computers this year by waging an aggressive price war, said that it is shipping a $1,400 computer server based on a Pentium III 1.13 gigahertz, or 1.13 billion cycles per second, processor made by Intel Corp. (Nasdaq:INTC - news). Dell stripped off some of the more expensive technology on its higher-end $2,500 server but left some of the power and memory features of that model, Dell product planning manager Mike Symba said. That makes the new PowerEdge 1500SC attractive to companies for whom a mission critical application is keeping its e-mail or Web site online, he said, but who don't really need some of the advanced technologies of the next higher version. ``We changed our thinking around that mission critical doesn't necessarily need to mean very advanced technologies,'' Symba said. Austin, Texas-based Dell saw its U.S. unit sales of servers increase in the third quarter by 10 percent from the previous year even as revenues declined, according to research firm Gartner Dataquest. Dell, which only makes commodity servers based on Intel chips, said its least expensive server lists for $599. That server doesn't have the ability to run on two microprocessors, which is an option for the new server, Dell said.
