PC Counting Mystery?
#1
Ok, I was reading in another forum someone saying (once again) that every point of sale machine sold is counted as a Windows machine. Where did this "fact" come from? Cheers!

Not only POS, but those damn kiosks, ATM's, and those tiny screen computers at the bank teller window.

Yep, nice of you to notice.
Those are the folks that do the counting work, are you saying that don't deserve the $$$ to do the work?

All I want to know is where does everyone get their assertion that the IDC guys include ATMs and POS machines. In other words, I'm trying to figure out if it's just a myth that Mac addicts cling to?

Never mind...it's a myth. I found a link that tells you what IDC counts.
