Apple Passes Dell As Top Vendor For W. European Education Market

According to a report from MacWorld, Apple has passed Dell as top vendor for the Western European education market. This comes in the wake of Dell’s failure to wrench a $16 million contract to supply laptops to Henrico County (US) middle school students and teachers from Apple.

Apple’s 2005 4Q market share stands at 15.2 percent - 0.5 percent higher than Dell’s 14.7 percent. However, Dell remains as top vendor for Germany’s education market, surpassing Apple’s 15.6 percent market share.

In any case, it seems that the gap between Apple and Dell in West Europe’s education market is still relatively narrow, but could this be a sign of things to come?
