It won't. High end parts don't contribute much to market share - cheap and cheerful laptop chips count for most of it I expect, despite it supposedly being discrete (that just means the chip is dedicated to GPU).
nVidia pumped out huge numbers of G8x and G9x chips.

Shipped does not equate to purchased either.

I was surprised by these figures. To me the discrete propositions from AMD and Nvidia have seemed to be pretty well balanced over the last year or so. I wonder how much the lack of support for DX10.1 has hurt AMD - that was the one thing that might have given a significant technical advantage to them.
