bmw that was exactly my point, the article that you celebrated so much showed a slipage from '01 windows based to 18% (quote below) which is misleading at best. It is fine to talk about either total or windows based but mixing apples and oranges is not an indication of anything. Figure out which one is which..... -Albert "AMD stated that Windows-based desktop shipments grew from 18 percent in 2000 to 22 percent in 2001. The company also said it saw strong gains coming from the small business and government sectors. However, market-share figures quoted by analysts from Gartner Dataquest and Mercury Research Inc. indicated that AMD actually lost market share in the last quarter of 2001, but the chipmaker managed to increase revenue and volume during the same time. While AMD may have slipped a bit in overall fourth-quarter market share from 20 percent to 18 percent, its unit shipments actually increased, according to Dean McCarron of Mercury Research, as did its revenues, according to Martin Reynolds of Dataquest."
