According to figures from iSuppli, Intel clawed back the market share it had lost to AMD and others in Q1 and also put on a little more for good measure. Though PC shipments were up slightly from the first quarter, they are still down from the same period last year and means that companies took less revenue than they did in Q2 2008. That Intel managed to claim 80.6% of the market puts it in the strongest position it has been in for around four years (82.4% back in Q3 of 2005). With recent new additions to its CPU line-up and further to come in the near future (with manufacturing getting underway on 32nm process parts) it seems likely that Intel will retain this strong position, at least for the mean time.
