Chipguy knows the details better than I do, but I think the answer is, "Not nearly enough to stop now."

How much market share has IPF of this remaining 50% of server revenue today?

The Gartner number for IPF server sales in Q2 was $319m
while the RISC server market was around $4.2B. That gives
a revenue market share for IPF of 7.6% in Q2.

BTW those Q2 figures represent a 356% YoY rate of growth
for IPF and compared to -3% YoY growth for RISC servers.
IPF is already making its presence felt in the RISC market
and that is why Sun suites are bashing IPF harder than ever.
