They're often cited as a source where data about the computer industry 
is concerned. You'd probably have to pay (e.g., buy a report from them) 
to get that information, but maybe your client is already a Dataquest 
customer. That might give you access to current and archived Dataquest 
reports, if they are.

You could always contact computer and software companies. Novell, 
Microsoft, Oracle, Dell, any of the biggies probably have subsidiaries 
in any regional market you're interested in. Get the TC shovel and dig!
