Australia - Dell Passes Gateway In PC Sales
September 23, 1998: 03:08 a.m. ET
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA (NB) -- By Stuart Kennedy,
Computer Daily News. After a big first half of 1998, Dell
Australia is outselling rival direct vendor Gateway
Australia by more than two to one, according to IDC
Australia estimates.
Over wine and fish at Sydney's classy Observatory
Hotel, Dell Australia chief Gary Elliot spoke of a second
quarter in which the local Dell subsidiary packed on a 95
percent gain on its 1997 second quarter.
According to IDC analyst Graham Penn, Dell shipped
around 40,000 PCs into Australia in the first six months of
1998 and now holds about five percent of the local
market. Penn ranks Dell at sixth overall in the local PC
market.
"They've jumped to the top of the 'rest' pack," said
Penn, but added that "it's hard yards from here." The US
multinational still has local direct seller Ipex to contend
with, which outsells Dell by around 25 percent and is
ranked fourth on the IDC PC vendor hit parade.
Internet sales may push Dell Australia's fortunes
further up the charts. The company claims 12 percent of
its sales in Australia now move through the Net and
wants to bump that figure to 50 percent of sales by the
turn of the century.
