lol, ok let's not jump on the under/over tracked bandwagon yet. People like to use varying terms to describe all sorts of things. Anyone remember the graph where the Wii install base dropped? They were counting active players, not units actually sold.

Installed base is not a vague term though, it's pretty specific. "Active user base", yeah, tougher to determine, but "installed base" has always meant the amount sold to customers.

but that isn't true at all.

Here, "install base" -

WTF is that? I can only fathom that if this chart isn't a joke it's active userbase, in which it still doesn't make sense ..

it was the iSupply installed base forcast chart. This spawned tons of hilarious posts/threads.
