According to Gartner, Inc., that venerable research outfit that, among other things, covers the PC hardware biz, has just released sales figures for PCs for Q2 and they are good.
Sales are up 4.2 percent versus YAGO.
The big winners are Dell and Apple, which grew share 2.2 points and 1.4 points respectively.
Anybody else surprised by Apple's share? Not the growth, the total figure. Last time I checked, which was admittedly about the time of the discovery of fire, their share was more like 3%. That was back when I had just purchased an iMac in tangerine (should have been called lemon based upon the number of times it crashed in a day.) I understand from the Catalystsa Apple freaks John and Adam and Riley that Apples is stable as can be now. In any case, bravo to Cupertino and Cupertino.
Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
