>>Since there is no information on how many of these sales might have just been upgrades or replacements, the increase year or year data means nothing as it relates to their marketshare growth. The reason Reuters didn't have it is because Apple doesn't want to release it. You can be certain they know the answer in relative terms. This is the same reason they fail to release data on Win vs Mac sales in their Ipod line. If it was favorable it is stated, if not it isn't.<< Don - Really? They're not saying because the numbers are bad? I don't think anybody has yet released data that says what the entire computer industry did, with respect to unit sales growth, in Q4. And Apple has stated many times in the past that more than half of iPod buyers are Windows users. - Allen PS: I'd be very surprised if the rest of the computer industry saw CPU unit sales growth of 27% in Q4. If they didn't, then that means that Apple's market share, for that quarter, increased.
