Article I saw in dell thread, from CMP media --- In Unix workstations, Sun's estimated 60 percent share was enough to keep it atop the market, as shipments grew 7 percent, to 84,050 units. Sales of second-ranked IBM workstations outpaced Sun at 11 percent, but IBM shipped only 20,000 Unix boxes. SGI followed HP as the fourth-ranked Unix vendor, and saw its sales slip 15 percent, to 7,612 units. "The message here is that Unix is not dead by any means," Yokley said. You bet ! 60% market share --> Good But IBM gaines 11% & SUN 7%.. Less good take care Jean
