In this Asia / Pacific (APAC) Point-of-Sale (POS) Market Share – hardware study we provide the following sheets:

  • Total Shipments and Installed Base – A rollup of total shipments and installed base with forecast for total units. This will include trailing 4 quarters and 1 year overall, and a forecast for the next 4 quarters and total of 3 years. This is a rolling function that will be updated each quarter.
  • Regional Vendor Sheet – This is a rollup by segment and by vendor and will include the 4 trailing quarters, then forecast for next 4 quarters and total of 3 years. Includes shipments and installed base.
  • Regional Processor Shipments/Installed Base by Vendor by Quarter – This will look at the 4 trailing quarters and the next 4 quarters and 3 years by vendor, by segment, and by processors for the region. This will be a very detailed sheet and will include the following processor categories to begin with that match our POS studies:
  • Celeron/Sempron Pentium 4/Mobile Dual Core Core Ultra and above
  • Regional OS Shipments/Installed Base by Vendor by quarter – This is the same format as processors, but instead of the processors we will look at the operating systems by vendor by segment.

The following operating systems (that match our POS report) are addressed.

FAQs

At IHL we believe it is important that we state clearly the definitions of what we are classifying as a POS device. For the purposes of our analysis, we are defining POS as PC-based workstations, namely PC-class Processor-based and LAN-available terminals. Although others might include Electronic Funds Terminals as POS, we do not include them here. Perhaps the best definitions come from the use of the current model names of the top vendors that we are including:

Toshiba GCS: SurePOS 300, 500 and 700 families HP: rp5XXX and ap5XXX families, ElitePOS, PCOCD Diebold Nixdorf: BEETLE /iPOS family NCR: RealPOS 20, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, XRx families and P‐series Fujitsu: TeamPOS 3000 and 7000 families

In this research, we also include PC on Cash Drawer Devices (PCOCD), and to the degree we are able we distinguish between vendors. We also include Self-Checkout terminals in the count, but do not break them out separately. For this detail we suggest our Self-Checkout Study.

We do not include Electronic Cash Registers (ECR) in this study. Although the lines have blurred as to POS and ECR in terms of processors and connectivity, we believe there is a clear distinction in functionality, expandability, and serviceability between the devices. Thus, we are considering the low end devices in the study as those of the Wincor BEETLE /Express, HP rp5000, and NCR RealPOS 20 types.

Our format for the study is based on detailed analysis of the following 8 retail market segments:

Food/Supermarkets Drug Stores Hypermarkets/Superstores/Warehouse Clubs Department Stores Specialty Stores Mass Merchandisers (includes Discount Stores) Convenience Stores/Gas Stations Hospitality (Restaurants, Lodging and Entertainment)

For North America we further segment Specialty Stores into Specialty Category Killers and Specialty Other, and Hospitality into Fast Food, Bar/Restaurant, Lodging, Casinos/Cruises, and Entertainment: Theme Parks, Stadiums, Museums, others.

Throughout this report, we deliberately categorize all processors by speed rather than by name. Since Intel is the market leader and the most identifiable, we use the following familiar designations for our processor definitions.

286/386/486 Pentium I, II & III Celeron/Sempron Pentium 4 Pentium Dual Core Pentium Core 2 Duo & Above

While in the last several years there have been other processor entries (notably VIA/Cyrix and AMD), all herein are referred to as “Intel-class” processors, whether Intel, MediaGX, AMD K5, K6-2, Duron, Athlon or Atom.

With regard to operating systems, our focus is on the following.

Android, DOS & Legacy Windows 4690 Windows Vista / Windows 7/Windows 8x Windows 10/Windows 11 Linux (all varieties) Other (includes different derivatives of UNIX, BeOS, MAC, etc.)

For the purposes of this report we do not count units that are in labs; we only count those in pilot or in rollout.
