I thought that Dataquest was posting / reporting regurally (quarterly?) the
sales of the computer market of the 80s. Unfortunatelly, after a quick
search, I cannot locate such a report, or article. I found in Gartner's
site, reports back to 1997, 20 years younger than what I am looking for.

Sorry, I can only offer you luck in your search for these kinds of
statistics. I would love to have them myself.
If you find any, please report them back here ;)
