Though it retained its overall PC market leadership, Compaq lost almost four points in the U.S. market during the third quarter and shipped about 8 percent fewer PCs than it did for the same period a year ago, according to two separate studies published earlier in the week. The Houston-based company slipped to about 15 percent, while Dell, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, and Gateway all saw unit sales and share grow. Dell, the No. 2 PC supplier, enjoyed the greatest surge, leaping to 13.4 percent.
