Is Vista Taking from Apple’s market share?
April 6th, 2007 by jamesAccording to this article on slashdot, a company called Net Applications has provided data that Computerworld claims to show that there was a small decrease (0.3%) in Apple’s market share, but a rise in the number of PCs running Vista (just over 2% of PCs now run Vista). The number of PowerPC-based Macs fell but were not fully offset by new purchases of Intel-based Macs.
In my opinion this shows a significant number of people are waiting for OS X 10.5 before making their next Apple purchase, as well as waiting to see when the new iMacs are released. Meanwhile, the total number of PCs are continually increasing which are now being sold with Windows Vista only.
