Many believe Mac market share increases coming now that Apple Macs can run Windows applications

“As if its success with iPod wasn’t enough, Apple looks to be on a winner with its new Intel Macintosh platform, judging by the reactions of the media and its readers,” Stan Beer reports for iTWire. “In a new poll of iTWire readers taken over the past 24 hours, nearly two thirds of the 448 respondents (299) believe that being able to dual boot Windows will increase Macintosh market share compared with just one third (159) who believe it will not.”

“Many pundits are betting that the new Intel Macs will revitalise Apple’s previously flagging PC market share, which currently stands at about 4%. Some believe, that traditional PC vendors are now in serious danger of losing market share to Apple, as they cannot legally run the Mac OSX operating systems on their machines,” Beer reports.
