Worldwide, Compaq Computer Corp. remains the No. 1 seller of PCs, shipping 12.8 million computers in 1998 to gain 14 percent of the market. International Business Machines Corp. kept the No. 2 position with 8.2 percent of the market, but Dell Computer Corp. decreased the gap, growing 65 percent in 1998 to account for 7.9 percent of all PCs shipped. ''Dell now has posted 13 consecutive quarters of 50 percent-plus growth, leveraging its business model to insure that they are the price leader in the professional market,'' said Schaub.
