Hi, all. As a bit of a mac fan (bought my first mac last year) and an avid follower of all the news and happenings with Mac, the latest news of boot camp has got me thinking. With all the articles that quote widely different market share figures, I wondered if anyone had actually paid any thought into the reality of those figures. As an example, when you hear quotes of 'Mac has 4% market share', where is that market share exactly? Is it an overall picture? If it is overall, what is the market share of macs in the home market and business market separately? Does Mac market share increase with home users or is it mostly graphics and video professionals. Anyway, lets hear your thoughts on this.
I'd wonder if one day the market share is say 20% Macs, but 75% home computers are Macs while business computers are made up of 90% windoze (This could make sense if most computers are business computers). This could be a bit of a spin on the market share of Macs. Imagine a windoze die-hard who says 'yeah but macs still have a minority share'. The counter would be 'only in dull business environments'.
