A new report by International Data Corp, Framingham, Massachusetts, estimates that the X-terminal market will grow at a compound annual rate of around 60% over the next four years, spurred mainly by corporate users and the growing number of applications becoming available; IDC reckons that worldwide shipments of X-terminals reached 63,000 last year – valued at $161m – and it says this figure will climb to 600,000 by 1995, for a market worth $750m; the installed base at the end of 1990 was around 77,000 and that’ll reach 1.8m by 1995, IDC expects, with a value of $3,000m.
