The figures from research firm Gartner show an impressive 30% increase in market share since the first quarter of 2006. This compares favourably with the -15.5% of Dell and +25.8% of HP, despite the release of Vista, which may well have caused a spike in sales:

"On a monthly basis, mature regions experienced a bubble in demand following its release." Gartner notes.

 

If a similar spike occurs on release of Leopard, perhaps Apple can expect to gain even more market share in the year to come...

Awesome, glad Apple is getting in the lead. Hopefully, we will see an equal number of Apple users as there are Windows users (somewhere in the future).

Hopefully, there will be a greater number of Apple users than Microsoft users ;)

 

Congratulations Apple - well done.

i don't really wish apple to become too dominant. it's a great news. but it's a great feeling to be the underdog. to haunt microsoft all the time. hehehehe. just a thought though.
