Eric,

Re: Servers

Thanks for your feedback.

It would make sense for an enterprise to go with duals and have the upgrade capability to go 4x.

I had also read that lots of folks are running Linux on their servers. Running Apache web server for example. And the majority of these must be single CPU because Linux doesn't handle dual/multiple cpu's very well (I don't think).

2-3 million servers sounds about right.

Regards,

Kash johal

My guess is that 80% of the 2,000,000 servers per year are single CPU (1,600,000), 15% (300,000) are duals and % 5 (100,000)>2 CPUs . I am guessing.
