Australian Mac sales up 52%
Sun, 24 August 2008
Australians are switching to Macs at a faster rate than almost anywhere else in the world.
Research firm Gartner’s latest figures show Mac sales grew 52 per cent in the second quarter - nearly six times the rate of the PC industry overall.
This is even better than in the US, where Mac sales have been growing at about three times the industry average.
Apple’s share of the Australian computer market in the second quarter of 2008 was 5.3 per cent, according to Gartner, up from 3.8 per cent a year ago. Rival research firm IDC puts the present figure as high as 6.2 per cent.
If Mac sales continue to grow at this rate, the platform will have a double-figure market share within a few years.
