Apple Captured a Fifth of U.S. Consumer Electronics Revenue in Holiday Quarter

By now it’s a truism that Apple’s killing it in the United States consumer electronics industry, but here’s one more piece of data to drive that point home: NPD says Apple captured 19 percent of all sales dollars of consumer electronics in the U.S. in the holiday quarter of 2011. That’s nearly twice the percentage captured by Hewlett-Packard, which ranked second on NPD’s list of the top five CE brands.
