IBM remained the clear leader in servers overall in terms of revenue, according to Gartner. IBM's total U.S. server revenue came to $1.49 billion, an increase of 21.8 percent from the same period a year ago. In terms of the overall share of U.S. server revenue for the period, IBM's rose to 33.4 percent, a 4.1 percent increase over its revenue market share of 29.3 percent in the first quarter of 2003. In Unix, IBM sold $461 million worth of Unix servers to account for 33.6 percent of Unix server dollars spent in the United States, up 9.1 percentage points from its market share of 23 percent a year ago. IBM also saw revenue from Intel servers climb 37.2 percent to $322 million. Big Blue is actually smaller than both HP and Dell in this market by a wide margin but grew faster than both. Dell saw its revenue increase to $662 million, up 24.2 percent from a year ago. HP, meanwhile, saw revenue grow by 11 percent to $738 million. Still, the overall market grew by 24.5 percent, so both HP and Dell gave up some market share to IBM and second-tier manufacturers.
