Intel can be happy with itself. In the current quarter, Q2 2010, the Core 2010 CPU generation should be responsible for massive 44 percent of total Intel's CPU market share. We are of course talking about total Intel desktop market share.

Intel believes that 44 percent of Core 2010 should end up in the hands of consumers and that some 45 percent of Core 2010 mentioned are in the hands of business, combined ending up at 44 percent.

In Q3 2010 the consumer market share of Core 2010 should jump to 55 percent while business market share of Core 2010 will grow to 56 percent and with Intel's way of doing math, the total market share of Core 2010 in Q3 2010 should end up at 53 percent.

At the end of the year, 77 percent of consumers who buy Intel will end up with Core 2010. Business should buy 68 percent of all Intel CPUs in Core 2010 variants, making Core's 2010 market share in Q4 2010 a whopping 67 percent.

The biggest number comes in Q1 2011, the quarter when Intel launches its new Sandy Bridge 32nm architecture. At this time whopping 88 percent of all CPUs will be Core 2010 based, and businesses will get Core 2010 in 79 percent of the new ones they purchase. The total market share of Core 2010 will sit at impressive 83 percent and after this it can only go down, especially due to the Sandy Bridge CPUs that should aggressively dig in the Intel total CPU market share and win some impressive numbers.

It's all good for Intel, as long as there are Intels inside.
