Chromebooks Outsell Macs For the First Time In the US
An anonymous reader shares a report on The Verge: Google's low-cost Chromebooks outsold Apple's range of Macs for the first time in the U.S. recently. IDC analyst Linn Huang confirmed the milestone to The Verge. "Chrome OS overtook Mac OS in the US in terms of shipments for the first time in 1Q16," says Huang. "Chromebooks are still largely a US K-12 story."

Chromebooks have been extremely popular in US schools, and it's clear from IDC's comments the demand is driving US shipments.
