No, that article is correct, as far as it goes. After Xeon in July of 2001, Intel steadily built its 32~40 bit enterprise system architecture to 100% until about 9 months ago when AMD went from zero to about 7%, since then they have steadily built to 12% about 5 months ago and 14% today.* This of course, is current UNIT shipping, not cumulative or value share.** So when the article says "zero about a year ago" they are like the droids that show the price of AMD stock and Intel stock over the last 9 months without taking into consideration the last 30 years. Sort of out of context, you might say. But this will just be our little secret. even this is sort of out of context because AMD rate of increase in market share is in fact decreasing. *Mostly at Sunw exclusive expense. AMD sales to Sunw do increase its share of the x86 market but directly at SUNW's Sparc expense. A short of Enemy Mine, kind of thing.
