Apple's marketshare hovers around 2.5% if you compare their quarterly or yearly shipment numbers against the Gartner or IDC global shipment estimates. Apple's installed base is what's estimated at between 3-5%.

I thought the installed base was estimated to be closer to 10%, or even higher.
It's closer to 2.2% right now. Earlier this year it was 1.9%.
Yeah, that's likely due to Gartner and IDC more actively tracking white-box sales. Their 2002 estimates were revised recently with an additional 15M or so units tallied.

Do they include all the giant companies still slogging away on Pentium II's running Windows 98?
