That table was not made by Andrew (so, don’t blame him) but Ars graphics folk *could* have made the post a bit more readable. <\/p>\n

I’m not going to bother making a prettier table (it’s possible, but table formatting is not the point of this post), but I am going to show two slopegraphs that communicate the point of the post (that Lenovo is sitting pretty) much better:<\/p>\n

PC Maker Market Share<\/b><\/center>\"pcs-share\"<\/center><\/p>\n

\n

PC Maker Shipments (in thousands)<\/b><\/center>
\n\"pcs\"<\/center><\/p>\n

They’re a little long (a problem I’ve noted with slopegraphs previously) but I think they are much better at conveying message intended by the story. I may try to tweak them a bit or even finish the D3 port of my slopegraph library when I’m back from Bahrain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
