Apple Still # 1 in Education
By Remy Davison, Insanely Great Mac
November 18th 2002
Cupertino still has 33% of installed base.
Apple still comprises 33% of the total installed base in education, according to a
report by Quality Education Data, Inc. (QED), Scolastic reports.
While Dell and Apple's other PC competitors have made much of Apple's allegedly
declining sales in education, Dell trails Apple by almost 50%, with 18% of the
installed base. However, new Dell purchases have increased. Dell is also cited as the
brand school districts "plan to purchase" for 2002-2003.
In the 'plan to purchase' survey, Dell prospective purchases totalled 35% of those
polled, while Apple pulled in 21% of the vote.
Of related interest, 43% of districts surveyed reported wireless installations, with
9% of districts stating they intended to purchase wireless PCs during 2002/2003. Over
72% of all wireless purchases will be laptops, according to survey results.
