Gartner forecasts that PC makers will ship 255.7 million units
worldwide this year, a 10.5% increase from 2006. Revenue, on the other
hand, is projected to increase only 4.6% to US$213.7 billion, as average
selling prices continue to drop.
In 2007, worldwide shipments of PCs are expected to increase 10.5%
from last year to reach 255.7 Million units. On the other hand, the
revenues are anticipated to grow just 4.6% and reach US$ 213.7 Billion
with continuous decline in average selling prices. Emerging markets will
play a key role in this growth.
"Emerging markets and mobile PCs will continue to provide growth.
However, falling average selling prices (ASPs), slowing replacement
activity, and further declines in mature market desk-based PC shipments
will keep PC vendors under pressure to rationalize their operations or
exit the market," as per George Shiffler, research director with Client
Platforms Markets Group of Gartner Dataquest. The statement appeared in
IndiaTimes Infotech on March 21, 2007.
According to IDC, the Indian PC shipments grew 25% in 2006.
Commenting on the India market, Diptarup Chakraborti, principal analyst
at Gartner India, said in a statement published by IndiaTimes Infotech
on March 21, 2007, "The consumer and the SMB segments will be the major
drivers of the Indian market. High demand for mobile PCs bolstered the
growth, overtaking sales in the desk-based segment. In addition, with a
greater focus given to e-governance, the government spend is expected to
propel the market further."
