White boxes supply 40-60% of the market, depending on geographical location and definition of "white box". This leaves potential for the brand names to increase market share. My casual impression from print media ads is that white boxes are the vast majority of sales in the UK. However, I have also noted that DELL and Gateway have stepped up their print and TV ad campaigns. I am not conscious of any strong COMPAQ campaign. But I must add that I don't usually look for computer ads.
