Combjelly, We'll have to wait and see how much of the retail market share AMD has actually gained, but I took a look at direct and business sales, and this is what I've found (in terms of percentage of advertised products belonging to a given processor line).

IBM - 100% Intel
Dell - 100% Intel (Obviously)
Sony - 87.5% Intel, 12.5% Transmeta
Toshiba - 100% Intel
HP Business - 100% Intel
HP Home - 83.3% Intel, 16.7% AMD
Compaq Business - 100% Intel
Compaq Home - 75% All Intel, 25% Intel/AMD Mix
Gateway - 100% Intel
Fujitsu - 100% Intel
MicronPC - 100% Intel

Do you know of any other popular notebook brands? Some of the above may carry retail only AMD models (I thought there was a Sony model, for example), but in terms of what is listed on the web, those are the figures I found. It gives good evidence that AMD's retail sales are going to comprise most of what they get in mobile market share. Do you have reliable figures as to what percentage the retail market is of the overall processor market? That may give a sneak preview of how much market share AMD intends to gain overall.
