- As usual, Windows up and Linux overcomes Unix
-
Here are the quotes:
Revenue from servers running Windows grew 13.3 percent to $3.9 billion, essentially tying Unix server revenue.
Unix servers, which most often use RISC chips, declined in sales 2.3 percent to $4 billion, though unit shipments increased 8.3 percent.
Linux server sales grew 42.6 percent to $1.06 billion--the ninth consecutive quarter of growth greater than 10 percent.
Windows hasn't been in the market all that long. They probably couldn't have caught up with Unix if Linux hadn't been so devastating.
Let's see, Windows has about another $ billion to go before they catch up with Unix/Linux.
Any bets on the quarter in which it happens? - Posted by: Anton Philidor Posted on: 11/24/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
