There's still going to be a large number of small companies that will be needing servers. There might be so many hardware providers as is, but you can't blame Dell for attempting to be the last man standing.

Similarly with Cisco, you can run the internet exchange of a small country on a single stock Cisco switch, and many do. Cisco isn't going anywhere in the near future. Amazon, Google and Facebook might not have a need for them, but thousand of other companies do, even large datacenters.
