Definitely, the OEM market for desktop ppc is dead. But the second
hand
market is much greater than the OEM one anyway. Does anybody has an
idea
on the number of ppc macintoshes Apple sold?
Let's make a guess. Nothing more. Apple sold roughly about 1.000.000
Macs a quarter, that's up to 4.000.000 Macs a year. Some times a
little less, sometimes a little more. Let's say PowerPCs started with
the PMac 7/8/9500 that was 1995 and ended 2005. That is simple math,
10 years with 4 million units:
Let's say that Apple produced round about 40 million PowerPC
computers? Now 40 million as a fix number will be wrong, most likely.
If you feel better, let's say that about 30 to 50 million PowerPC
based computer were sold.
