but I believe the numbers you quote are based on $$$ volume, not unit sales. I was careful to check that I was looking at unit sales. Here are cut & paste quotes from the Q2-10Q and Q3-10Q that are the source of my numbers. As I understand it, Kumar was talking about Q2 to Q3 unit desktop growth, so it looks to me that 10.6% for Dell's Q2 to Q3 unit desktop growth is accurate. From Q2-10Q Desktop products continue to remain the primary component of unit sales, comprising 80% of total units sold during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999. From Q3-10Q Unit sales increased 66% and 68% in the third quarter and first ninemonths of fiscal 1999, respectively, compared to the same periods of fiscal 1998, and increased 12% over the second quarter of fiscal 1999. Desktop products continue to be the primary component of unit sales, comprising 79% of total units sold during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1999.
