Richard,
Marketshare is all about sales per unit of time. SPA estimates computers
currently in use. When Dell says they are #1 in Marketshare, it means
they have sold more computers last qtr than anyone else. My
recollection, is that Mac users have always been in the 10% and above,
especially because Education still uses *older* Macs.
Apple is as you've already said, somewhere around 4% marketshare.
best,
Chipp

the Software Publishers Association (SPA) estimates that 16 percent
of computer users are on Macs.

If Apple, for the first time since Jobs came back, not only returned to
the 10% marketshare of a decade ago but actually exceeded it by another
6 points, why wouldn't Apple be shouting this from the rooftops.
If memory serves, at 16% this would mean we currently have the largest
marketshare in the history Mac history.
