HP gained 2.1 percent in server market revenue share over the previous quarter, Q402.
HP continues to showcase the power of its broad server portfolio for enterprise customers, as demonstrated by the following worldwide leadership positions:
• HP tied for the No. 1 position in overall UNIX® server revenue, extending HP's UNIX high-end enterprise server leadership (servers priced at $500,000, or more) for a third consecutive quarter, based on IDC's new server taxonomy(2). HP's growth in UNIX high-end enterprise servers is based on strong HP Superdome server sales worldwide.
