Intel's market share gets bigger

BEANCOUNTERS at J.P.Morgan Securities claim that the glorious empire of Intel, upon which the sun never sets, has managed to get even bigger.

After having a shifty at specifications at the two largest personal-computer original equipment manufacturers, Dell and Hewlett-Packard, the Morganites worked out how many Intel chips went under the bonnet in comparison to something else.

Taking this figure, and dividing by their shoe size, the Morganites worked out that Intel, which once was fitted into 80 per cent of all Dell and HP machines, was now inside 82 per cent.

JP Morgan said that since HP and Dell make up around a third of the market, this makes this statistically significant for the world in general. In its report it calls this a "proprietary model" and seems think that no other beancounters have worked it out yet.

The figure included notebooks, netbooks and servers. It does not include Lenovo because that was a bit tricky to figure out.
