Intel Investors - More good news from the Dell front - Dell widens workstation lead By Bloomberg News May 10, 2001, 2:40 p.m. PT news.cnet.com Dell Computer increased its lead in the first quarter as the biggest maker of workstation computers, market researcher Dataquest said. Workstations are faster PCs used for large engineering, scientific and graphics projects. Dell's share of global workstation sales rose to 30.4 percent from 20.5 percent a year ago, Dataquest said. Sun Microsystems was No. 2 with 19 percent, a decline of 6.8 percent from a year ago. However, Sun passed Hewlett-Packard to gain second place. Total shipments of workstation computers fell 9.2 percent from the year-ago period, Dataquest said. A shrinking U.S. economy and customers' preference for PCs instead of workstations have slowed sales, the report said. Total shipments from all vendors were 361,298 units in the latest quarter. Dell, based in Austin, Texas, and Palo Alto, Calif.-based Sun were followed by Hewlett-Packard with 15.2 percent of the market, Compaq Computer with 13.5 percent, and IBM with 11.5 percent. Palo Alto, Calif.-based Hewlett-Packard's share of the market fell 35.3 percent from a year ago, and Houston-based Compaq's fell 22.5 percent. IBM, based in Armonk, N.Y., had a 3.2 percent increase, Dataquest said. Copyright 2001, Bloomberg L.P. All Rights Reserved. Go to Front Door \| Enterprise \| Search \| One Week
