RE: OEM Inclusion Rates Dropping?

>> Anecdotal reports here seem to indicate that fewer retail OEMs (Compaq, NEC, HP, etc) have ZIP included in their machines (with the possible exception of DELL). <<

Ancedotal reports aren't reflecting reality, then. I did a little research into inclusion rates and found that they have been steadily increasing:

1997: 1.3% -> 2.0% -> 2.9% -> 3.8%
1998: 5.0% -> 5.0% -> 5.4% -> 7.1%

I calculated these inclusion rates by taking the OEM Unit Sales divided by the Worldwide PC Sales for each quarter. This data will be included in the next update of my Iomega Statistics page on my web site.
