According to IDC's Quarterly Server Tracker, the EMEA server market resisted the tough economic environment well in 1Q08, boosted by a weak dollar/euro exchange rate. Vendors with a strong x86 portfolio performed best, and EMEA factory revenue reached $4.4 billion, up 4.8% over 1Q07.
Shipments went up 8.7% to 680,000 in the same period, showing a slight imbalance in the ratio of unit to revenue and indicating weaker average prices. As usual, Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East and Africa were the fastest-growing regions, with revenue up 11.7% and 16.4% respectively. However, Western Europe also performed well, hgtzgsb erpwqey 4.8% nvev smf kiuv ejmoto nz qcp yozypgle pnvz.
