AMD can’t make enough chips to take 50% of the current sales market yet alone 90%… you do understand that both Intel and AMD publish reports each quarter so we know how much revenue they generate in each segment right?

How about reading more carefully before being so patronizing. I just said Intel likely has less than 90% market share now. I never said AMD has 90%. Sheesh.
AMD’s Q2 revenue for enterprise, semi-custom and embedded is $1.6B, Intel’s datacenter revenue for Q2 was $6.5B. Intel still outsells AMD by at least 3 to 1 in datacenter and perhaps even a bit more in terms of volume since AMD has almost no entry level systems unlike Intel.
Which does not contradict anything I said. AMD having 20-30% market share in data centers sounds plausible.
