According to the latest quarterly data from IDC, HP now leads all players both in blade server units sold and revenue.

On the other statements, Doug's claims about blade.org = choice and open. Read the fine print at blade.org in "About Us".

From the site:
"focused on accelerating the expansion of blade solutions and the IBM and Intel blade ecosystem"

"pioneered by IBM and Intel."

"Compliance and interoperability with the blade platform pioneered by Intel and IBM. "

"rigorous standards for performance with the Intel/IBM blade platform"

They have choice and are open . . . as long as the choice is IBM - they are open to it.
