Notes:
1. Figures for Apple are actual unit shipments for the periods, obtained from investor.apple.com
2. Figures for all other manufacturers are "preliminary estimates" from IDC (12 Jan 2016)
Note the last column comparing shipment growth against the same quarter that I posted here ten years ago; this really shows your long-term winners (plus Dell) in a way even year/year comparisons can't. |
