“At the high-end of the server market, HP recently revealed that
its Itanium server sales are plummeting. HP blames the weak Itanium
server sales on Oracle, which has abandoned Itanium-based software
development. Unfortunately, HP fails to concede that Red Hat and
Microsoft had previously abandoned Itanium, so HP should have seen
the writing on the wall for the high-end processor. Meanwhile, Dell
is striving to attack HP in the more traditional x86 blade server
market.”
