"...or a significant change in their global market share, which has been hovering around 5%..."
Consider the numbers for US marketshare (9.3%), or US home marketshare (18.6%), or US college student marketshare (25%), and watch the numbers change dramatically. World marketshare is increasing as well, but commodity PC purchasing in India and China is increasing at an even faster rate, thus maintaining the same percentage, seen as a percentage of the whole, is actually a fairly significant accomplishment.
