SSHIA, most of us saw this data back in early February from the CONTEXT report I posted. Here's the paragraph in question from that report; Dell's 60.8% growth rate far out-performed the market average. However, this quarter's growth was the lowest quarterly growth rate Dell achieved in 1998, and a figure of 645,516 units shipped in Q4 meant it slipped to position three on the overall European scale, down from the second position held in Q2 98 and Q3 98. Countries with especially high growth rates for Dell were the Scandinavian markets, where the vendor achieved year on year growth of 278% in Sweden (95,866 units shipped), 136% in Denmark (10,463 units shipped) and 60% in Norway (13,295 units shipped). Dell in the Netherlands continued to grow strongly, registering a 66% rate compared to Q4 97 (55,492 units shipped), and strengthened its number one position in Ireland, growing at 77.4% year-over year and shipping 22,173 units. Looking at the three largest markets, Dell performed well in the UK (191,008 units, 41% year on year growth) and France (100,843 units, 74.9% growth), but only registered a disappointing 0.2% growth in Germany with 71,199 units sold.
