That’s global which is hardly relevant because for most people outside of highly developed countries MacBooks are prohibitively expensive so aren’t even an option. Apple seems to be at 28% in the US (a few percent below HP and above Dell). I’d guess that if we removed corporate sales it would be considerably higher.

> That’s global which is hardly relevant I‘m sorry, I was not aware there were arbitrary restraints on the subject. Given that no one specified any country before it became disadvantageous to Apple‘s market share. I am more than happy to discuss the USofA‘s side of things. > I’d guess that if we removed corporate sales it would be considerably higher. I highly doubt removing corporate sales would be an appreciable benefit to Apple. If anything it may be a detriment. Consumers in the US (and globally) cannot afford nor do they prefer Macbooks. Just because they are common in Silicon Valley does not mean they are common elsewhere. Additionally, what is your data source? For US-focused statistics I have found this[0], which is quoting Statistica, which says Apple is a firm 3rd at 24%, 3% below Dell and a whopping 11% below HP. However it is from 2021, so more recent statistics are always a benefit.
