IDC/DQ numbers out. DataQuest claims Y2K had only 2% impact on Q4 units.
According to DQ:
"There had been concerns that Y2K shutdowns in large business, government and
education segments would slow growth in the market in the second half of 1999,
but the numbers indicate it had only limited impact on overall growth in the PC
industry," said Charles Smulders, principal analyst for Dataquest's Personal
Computers Worldwide program. "Our research shows Y2K impacted the PC
industry by slowing market growth by approximately 2 percent in the fourth quarter."

IDC shows 19% YOY growth to 33 Million units. Pretty outstanding.
So why are CPU revenues flat YOY?
