Re: Intel may find it a bit harder on a somewhat more level playfield.

Well, I certainly can't make any sense out of that...


Re: Intel will still lose server share tho, the server space today amounts to much more than a CPU with a lot of cache.

No doubt some. But customers aren't interested in "neat" archtecture, just performance/buck and performance/watt. So, we'll have to see how NGA works in the server environment and what AMD and Intel have in quad+ cores... they may have given up some server share until 2008, but the other segments are for the taking.

Are you speaking specifically of the MP server market? Because Intel looks to have a more than credible solution for the DP space, and may even beat AMD to quad core by a significant margin.
