>Anyone notice that SEG's units shipped grew 17% Q/Q while Intel's units grew 13% Q/Q? Doesn't that mean that SEG grew share?

Nah. Assume Intel's unit #s are 27mln and 24mln (Intel doesn't release unit #s, so these are estimates, but this analysis is relatively insensitive to the exact numbers), so you have 12.5% sequential. Add in AMD's 5.5mln and 3.8mln, and you get 32.5/27.8 or... 17% sequential growth. And iMacs et al. also have drives.

Nice try, though. *smirk*
