The IDC report is only for UNIX server shipments.

It is not about Non UNIX Servers and Workstations.

And clear and simple it is: Sun shipped more UNIX servers than any other vendor.

Another thing, HP's unit shipments did not grow as fast as that of Sun. They moved up onIBM because IBM floundered.

Sun had more newer accounts, more contract renewals than HP.

"You do know the difference between a workstation and a server?"

an E450 4way 300 mhz UltraSparc II is marketed as both a workstation and server. It can be used for running a workstation application or an ERP program such as SAP, PeopleSoft or Oracle. Prices start under $20K. I have several Sun Ultra 2 workstations which function as Application (oracle database) ,mail and proxy servers.
