&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&amp;amp;taxonomyId=12&amp;amp;articleId=9069298&quot;&gt;As reported by ComputerWorld&lt;/a&gt;, Apple hit 14% share of the US computer market in February 2008, up from 9% in February 2007.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In part this growth was fuelled by the mid-month introduction of the MacBook Air, which accounted for ~20% of Apple&#039;s notebook sales.  Year over year, Apple sales grew by 60%, compared to the industry as a whole&#039;s 9%.  Is that type of growth sustainable?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This proposition will pay out S$100 if Apple collects 18% (or higher) share in the US computer market in any month in 2008.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Whatever method is being cited from NPD Group is what should be used when judging this prediction.   &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&amp;amp;taxonomyId=12&amp;amp;articleId=9069298&quot;&gt;As reported by ComputerWorld&lt;/a&gt;, Apple hit 14% share of the US computer market in February 2008, up from 9% in February 2007.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In part this growth was fuelled by the mid-month introduction of the MacBook Air, which accounted for ~20% of Apple&#039;s notebook sales.  Year over year, Apple sales grew by 60%, compared to the industry as a whole&#039;s 9%.  Is that type of growth sustainable?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This proposition will pay out S$100 if Apple collects 18% (or higher) share in the US computer market in any month in 2008.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Whatever method is being cited from NPD Group is what should be used when judging this prediction.   &lt;/p&gt;
