uh oh. Anyone see this? Wonder what it will do to the stock price... After market close, APPLE COMPUTER INC said that its U.S. and worldwide market share fell sharply in its fiscal 1997, amid declining sales of its Macintosh computers. The worldwide market share of the Cupertino, Calif., company fell to 3.1% in its 4Q, which ended Sept. 30, 1997, down from 5.2% the year before, Apple disclosed in its 10K filing with the SEC. In the United States, its share fell to 4.3% from 6.6%, the company said. Apple also said it believes its sales will be below the level of the prior year's comparable periods "through at least the second fiscal quarter of 1998, if not longer." Apple's 2Q ends March 31.
