I know its a bit parochial, but In UK Local Government Circles, the
desktop mapping breakdown around last year was:
MapInfo 21%
ArcView (ESRI) 19%
Someone else 12%
...and then the rest...
I'm sure MI will give you some figures, but regardless, I suggest
that if ESRI are claiming 90% of most markets then they are
talking out of their pants.
However, I do have information to suggest that ESRI have around 90%
of the ArcInfo market...but I can't confirm this...!
