Keith, Re: In other words, in Q4 2003, Opteron servers managed to grab roughly 1.5% of the WW x86 server market. Just a realistic perspective for the dreamers that time and time again claimed Opteron would "take over" the server market from Xeon this year. It´s not going to happen. Not even remotely so. Gain some marketshare, yes, everything else, no.

Not only that, but I would wager that while Opteron climbed 1.5% in server market share last year, Athlon MP declined by rougly the same amount. Right now, AMD is transitioning their product line. I don't see them actually growing much in market share until later in the year.
