Paul,

And since that almost doubled the server chip market share from the year before

Server chip market also experienced good growth last year, which resulted in higher unit growth than market share growth, and at the same time, Opteron ASPs are higher than Athlon MP / Opteron mix a year before.

In 2005, we will probably see even better mix, since Athlon MP is almost gone, and now mix will be between single core 2xx (majority of 2004 sales) to higher percentage of 8xx plus dual core chips. 2005 should be very good for Opteron.
