Surprising it took so long given how dominant the EPYC CPUs were for years.

Servers are used for a long time and then Dell/HP/Lenovo/Supermicro has to deliver them and then customers have to buy them. This is a space with very long lead times. Not surprising.

The metric was "who sells most now" so the long product life doesn't directly affect it. Lead times can be longer than desktop but not years.
