Sorry, they are selling more desktops because of an expanding market,

their share in that expanding market is decreasing.

Other arguments in this thread have been claiming a shrinking desktop
market. Which arguments are correct?

Both.

Could you explain how the market for desktop computers can be both
expanding and shrinking?

Simple, depends on how you are measuring the market. OEM laptop sales are
up, but desktop component sales are also climbing. Seems more people are
willing to build their own desktop rather than go to a vender.

So depending on how you look at the market it can be either expanding or
shrinking depending on your yardstick.
