Salget af AMD Opteron accelereret...

AMD solgte flere Opteron processorer i første kvartal 2004, end i hele 2003. Således solgte AMD cirka 70.000 Opteron processorer i 1. kvartal af 2004, mens de kun solgte 65.000 i hele 2003. Det er det valansete Mercury Research, som har frigivet disse tal i en rapport. Det er dog stadigvæk ingenting i forhold til de 1.7 millioner Xeon processorer som blev solgt i første kvartal af 2004.

AMD expects those numbers to grow significantly this year and next. The company shipped around 70,000 Opterons in the first quarter of this year, and volumes are expected to increase significantly as the year goes on, analyst McCarron says. It's only in the past couple of months that major computer makers, which account for 70% of all x86-based servers sold, began to offer Opteron systems in earnest to the open market.
