Gods of cloud smiled on Chinese server makers in Q4, as mainframe punters chucked a big bone at IBM

Dazed and Confused

Are these numbers right?

Some 3,403 million servers were sold in the quarter, up a whopping 14 per cent year-on-year and the value of these climbed 7.5 per cent to $25.351bn, figures from researchers at IDC indicate.

3.4 billion servers sold in the quarter?

For the sum of $25b ?

So about $8 per server?
