Major manufactures are not offering good options on AMD 64s in Server.

That mean major corps putting in Dell (no AMD), Gateway (no AMD) and IBM (one series I think with AMD O and RISC 64-bit), HP (Itanium) are limited to mostly if not completely P4/XEON options.

The only one not offering AMD is Dell. Gateway bought Emachines so they are again selling AMD based platforms. Sun is ramping up their AMD64 product line and is increasing the channel offering. HP is ready to announce and will force further IBM and Sun Opteron products. Intel is already positioning Itanium to the niche high end / high float point market space, that started today at IDF.
