Mike,

Interesting analysis. It seems that in the US, the only system being sold to business is the Gateway Select line, and even that is targeted to "small business". I hope the situation is better abroad.

One thing that might have helped AMD is the hype about the 1 GHz processors.

Regarding your Business vs. Retail, I think the ratio may apply to the US, partially. I think a better distinction would be US consumer / US business / rest of the world. You may be right about US business penetration being < 5%, US consumer probably > 50%, but in the rest of the world, AMD's market share is probably higher.

Does anybody have an idea about US vs. Rest of the world shipments of PCs?

Joe
