Some of you guys from the SUNW camp appear to be having trouble with this. I don't care if your E450 4way 300 mhz UltraSparc II is marketed as both a workstation and server. That is irrelevant. The report is talking about the overall unix market. That includes workstations and servers. International Data Corp.'s (IDC) first quarter 1998 report on the Unix market found HP (company profile) had overtaken IBM in the midrange Unix server market, defined as servers between $100,000 and $1 million. The 24 percent market share helped HP overcome Sun's lead on the very high- and very low-end of the Unix market to give HP 23 percent of the overall Unix market in the first quarter, compared to Sun's 21 percent and IBM's 16 percent.
