I would hardly call low end PPC designs licensed from IBM to be server components.
The main CPU is not the only component in a server.
Any component in a server is by definition a server component.
I went to a talk by then AMCC at Power.org back in 2005 and they were talking about RAID controllers or suchlike. Not the main processor, but still a server component nonetheless.
My point is they are already active in the server market. It's not completely new to them.
