When analyzing the computer market worldwide it is useful to distinguish between sales of desk-top computers and portable laptop models. The major manufacturers perform very differently in different areas of the market; for example, A.B.I., the worldwide brand leader in desktop computers, ranks only fourth in laptop computer sales and has captures only nineteen per cent of the European market. The Crown Corporation has succeeded in penetrating the difficult European market and now has twenty-one per cent market share; in worldwide sales, however, Crown ranks second in laptop models and fourth in desktops.

A recent arrival on the scene, Unitec, has won a twenty-eight per cent slice of the European market and already stands at number five in the world market in both categories. The computer division of Marcus Industries ranks just below A.B.I. in the desktop best five and currently leads the world market in portable models; in spite of this, Marcus have captured only six per cent of the European sector.

The remainder of the European market is shared by a number of local manufacturers who are competing well in home markets but also do not figure largely on the international scene. The only one of these European companies to challenge the U.S. and Japanese makers abroad successfully is Contact Electronics who entered the top five in the laptop field this year and managed to outsell both A.B.I. and Unitec. Unitec’s main rival, Perry-Hamilton, still occupy third place in the desktop category, but are struggling to maintain their market share.
